The relevant authorities are verifying the authenticity of the information regarding a cyberattack on the database of the Prime Minister's office by Russian hackers. This was reported to Armenpress by Armen Khachatryan, the head of the Information and Public Relations Department of the Prime Minister's office.

“The relevant authorities are verifying the authenticity of the information; we do not have confirmation at this time,” Khachatryan stated.
