NoName, which is considered a pro-Russian hacker group, has been relentlessly targeting websites of governments of nations in support of Ukraine over the Russo-Ukrainian conflict.
Nearly all founding NATO countries are against Russia in the war including France, Italy, Norway, Denmark, and Iceland among others. However, Belarus has been among the biggest supporter of Russia.
