The war between Russia and Ukraine that has been going on for the last 33 months now seems to be entering a new phase. Russia is continuously firing missiles on Ukraine, while Ukraine is also responding to these attacks. Meanwhile, news has come that Russia is preparing to launch cyber attacks on the United Kingdom and other NATO members to weaken Ukraine's support. A senior minister of the British government has made this claim.

According to media reports, Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster Pat McFadden will share this information at a NATO meeting next week. The minister claimed that the Kremlin could target Britain and cut off electricity for millions of people.

Russia has made these preparations for the attack.

In his speech to the NATO Cyber ​​Defence Conference at Lancaster House, McFadden is expected to emphasize that Russia will not hesitate to exploit vulnerabilities in Western cyber security, particularly the UK's, to advance its geopolitical agenda. Lancaster will urge NATO members not to underestimate the seriousness of the threat.

McFadden said, that through cyber attacks Russia can cut off electricity to millions of homes. It can shut down the power grid. This is the secret war that Russia is fighting with Ukraine.

Many councils in Britain were hit by cyber-attacks.

The cabinet minister is also expected to mention Russia's Unit 29155 in his speech. This is a military intelligence unit that has been accused of carrying out previous cyber attacks in the UK and across Europe. According to media reports, several councils in Britain have been subjected to cyber attacks in recent weeks - some of which have been claimed by an alleged pro-Russian hacking group.
