Public Service Minister Stanislas Guerini indicated on Friday that “ 800 administrative sites ” had been targeted during the cyberattack. The Paris prosecutor's office's anti-cybercrime section opened an investigation after these computer attacks.

Hackers had mentioned a “ massive cyberattack ” targeting in particular the ministries of the Economy, Culture, Ecological Transition, the Prime Minister's services or the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGAC) “ It’s all part of this hybrid war that our countries are already experiencing. It only illustrates in a certain way the geopolitical situation, what we are experiencing today and what we will probably experience with even greater intensity tomorrow,” said Guerini.
