Ukrainian Cyberattack on Russian Defense Ministry: Recent Updates and Impact
written by Alexandra Hartman Editor-in-Chief

Ukraine said on Tuesday it had carried out a cyberattack that knocked out a Russian Defense Ministry server and temporarily disrupted internal exchange of information.
The operation “neutralized the special communications server of the Russian Defense Ministry,” Ukrainian military intelligence (GUR) assured in a press release claiming responsibility.
“The cyberattack disrupted the exchange of information between units of the Russian Defense Ministry that used the server in question, located in Moscow,” the GUR added. This operation “continues,” he said.
At the same time, Russian authorities announced on Tuesday an outage affecting numerous websites in the country and caused by a “technical problem”.
The Ministry of Defense website was not mentioned, and there is no indication yet that these two announcements are linked.
The Ministry of Digital Development affirmed in a press release that this malfunction “related to the DNSSEC infrastructure”, or “Domain Name System Security Extensions”, had been resolved in the evening.
“Disruptions” might continue “for some time”, warned the ministry.
These dysfunctions were reported in the Moscow region, but also in those of Saint Petersburg, Novosibirsk and even in the Republic of Tatarstan, according to the state agency Ria Novosti.

New Potential Treatment for Lou Gehrig’s Disease: Promising Study Results

An American study carried out on mice unveiled on Tuesday a new treatment full of promise once morest Lou Gehrig’s disease, fatal and for the moment without a known effective cure.
Also called amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) affects approximately 30,000 people in the United States. It causes progressive paralysis of the muscles, creating a state of confinement in the patient, and generally causes death in less than five years.
In the study published by the scientific journal PLOS Biology, a team of researchers says they have studied a way to target and stabilize a protein that protects cells from toxic elements from food or inhaling oxygen.
In many cases, hereditary mutations in a gene that produces the protein in question are the cause of Lou Gehrig’s disease. But these mutations can also occur without a family history.
Mutations in this gene, SOD1, lead to poor assembly of the protein which prevents it from carrying out its tasks and disrupts the cellular machinery in the broad sense, leading to a clump of proteins which are also linked to, among other things, cancer. Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.
The new treatment is a “molecular stabilizer” that acts like a “stitching” and forces the protein to stay in its correct configuration, explained study director Jeffrey Agar, who discovered and tested this with his team. tool following 12 years of research.
The molecule was tested on mice — genetically modified so that they carried the disease — and the researchers found that it not only restored the functions of the protein, but also stopped any secondary toxic effects.
Its effectiveness has also been proven in rats and dogs. It succeeded in stabilizing 90% of SOD1 proteins in blood cells and 60 to 70% in brain cells.
The researchers now hope to obtain approval to move on to clinical trials in humans.
Although there is currently no effective neuroprotective treatment for all patients, advance marketing authorization was issued in April 2023 in the United States for a drug (Qalsody from the Biogen laboratory) targeting certain forms only illness.

How does Argentina get into the match once morest Chile?
Those led by Mascherano come from worse to better: from an unwanted debut to a change of face on the last date. In the premiere, the Albiceleste was able to rescue a point thanks to Gondou in the last minutes, and they managed not to get off to a bad start. Then, Against Peru, the National Team was forced to add three at a time so as not to have to depend on the calculator. Luckily, they did..
In the first half, Argentina managed to prevail with its game over the Peruvians, but might not find the necessary effectiveness in the last meters of the field to be able to put it in the back of the net. Apart from some arrivals without much damage from the rival, the game went to halftime in a silent 0-0. History that would change in the second section of the game…
The first came from the twelve steps. After Brighton’s new player, Valentín Barco, fell in the area following a great play, the referee awarded a penalty. Beyond Colo’s intention to kick him, the captain, Thiago Almada, took responsibility. With a cross shot, Argentina shouted 1-0 in the 52nd minute of the match.
The second would come from the team’s top scorer, Luciano Gondou, who once more entered from the bench. After a great collective play, the team put together pass following pass until reaching the goal line, where the Argentinos Juniors forward was in charge of pushing it.
