The Russian national anthem was played on the railway in Poland

Unknown persons interfered with the operation of the Polish railway by tapping into the public address system. The hackers switched on the Russian anthem and a fragment of Putin's speech. About it reports Wyborcza.

Attackers took advantage of radio frequencies used in the work of the railway and sent a signal that provoked an emergency stop of trains. They then switched on the Russian anthem and a fragment of Putin's speech through the public address systems," the newspaper reported.

Railway employees explained that such an intervention did not require much training or special knowledge, as much of the information about the carrier's work is open.

It is reported that the intruders sounded the alarm at around 9pm the night before, causing the stoppage of several trains, both passenger and freight. At the same time they switched on the Russian anthem.

According to PKP PLK spokeswoman Magdalena Janus, a total of 20 trains were stopped because of the false alarm. They were able to resume work and continue their journey after five hours of downtime.

The police are investigating what happened.
