Power failure Venezuela due to cyber attack

The major power outage in Venezuela, which hit almost the entire country on Thursday, has been a result of a cyber attack.

According to Rodríguez, the attack was aimed at the hydro-electric power station Guri. It supplies 80 percent of the electricity in the country. 'This was the most brutal attack that the Venezuelan people had to endure in 200 years,' the minister explained. Who is behind the attack is not known. Previously, President Nicolás Maduro blamed the US.
