Putin's set to make an "extremely important speech" with "a profound assessment of the reasons for what's happening" at @SPIEF, Russia's top economic event.

It's already been pushed back an hour – the Kremlin says cyberattacks took down the entry system.

But just before Mr. Putin was scheduled to appear, the Kremlin said his appearance would be delayed by an hour. The reason: “large-scale” distributed denial-of-service cyberattacks on the conference’s computer systems.

IT Army of Ukraine, a “hacktavist” group behind a lot of attacks on Russian websites, had earlier flagged the economic forum as a target. “The St. Petersburg International Economic Forum is starting today, so let’s ‘visit’ it online together,” the group said on its Telegram channel.
