Dark Storm Hacktivist Group Claims Responsibility for DDoS Attacks on X
On Monday, X (formerly Twitter) suffered multiple global outages due to what owner Elon Musk described as a “massive cyberattack.”
While Musk did not explicitly confirm a DDoS (Distributed Denial-of-Service) attack, he suggested that the attack involved “a large, coordinated group and/or a country.”

The pro-Palestinian hacktivist group, Dark Storm, has taken credit for the attack, posting screenshots and links to Check-host.net on their Telegram channel as proof of their activity.

Check-host.net is a website that allows users to check site availability globally, often used by threat actors during DDoS campaigns to demonstrate an attack’s effectiveness.
