๐จ JUST IN: ๐บ๐ธ A U.S.-bound oil tanker was reportedly hit by a serious cyberattack, with hackers allegedly gaining access to critical ship systems.
The vessel, identified in reports as VL Prosperity, was heading toward Galveston, Texas, carrying roughly 2.3 million barrels of crude oil. Reports say the attack disrupted communications for around 30 hours and allegedly affected propulsion, navigation and cargo-related systems.
๐บ๐ธ The U.S. Coast Guard and FBI later boarded the vessel to investigate after finding indications of malicious cyber activity.
โ ๏ธ But thereโs a critical detail: U.S. authorities have not publicly confirmed that Iran was responsible, despite Iranian media reports making that claim.
No crew injuries, environmental damage, vessel instability or confirmed operational disruption were reported.
This is bigger than one tanker.
If hackers can reach a shipโs operational technology, the threat moves from stolen data to real-world infrastructure, energy supply chains and maritime security.
The investigation is still ongoing. ๐ฅ

@Milajoy I cannot believe narratives as these exist in America. When California and some states in America have been in the news lately around funds and accountability.
@AsakyGRN See me tearing up like this.
God bless those siblings who didnt take all these and still mess themselves up, join cults , drugs addicts etc. God bless those older brothers and sisters who raise and train
@BerilN43 Maybe the multiple aides they are employing all around the country.
I really need another govenmrmt to come in because the corruption COOKED by APC is a new one
@Balogun_Royal@GreenLaantern@ruffydfire While I get your point,
We have intelligence team tasked with intelligence gathering but unfortunately they are tools to politicans or wealthy Nigerians.
I wish they can be left alone they work for Nigerians.
This is so so sad
It has never been this bad on all sides.
Poverty, division, corruption , bloodshed etc.
It is a horrible situation right now and I must question what our intelligence teams are doing?? Can they(i just want to believe they are thoroughbred worklords there)ignore the politicians and be professionals.
This is unacceptable and APC must go!!!!
