Russian hacker group Killnet has threatened to suspend ventilators in British hospitals in retaliation for the suspect's arrest. 23-year-old Killnet  was arrested in London on Monday for attacking the  Romanian government's website. 

 Reportedly, Kinet demanded his release and threatened to use a life-saving ventilator in a British hospital if their demands were not met. 

 "If he is not released within 48 hours, I will destroy your Romania, England, Moldova," read the Kirnet warning  posted on  the messaging site Telegram. 

 "I will destroy your entire information structure and even your Ministry of Health. All ventilators will be attacked,` said the message. `Only then will you begin to realize the mistake you have made.` 

 The alleged Killnet member was reportedly arrested by National Crime Agency officers alongside officials from Romania. 

 The raid took place at an address in Tottenham, North London where the hacker was detained on suspicion of assisting with Killnet`s attacks on the Romanian government and media earlier this week in retaliation for supporting Ukraine in the Russian invasion. 

 The hacker is reportedly a Putin supporter with Facebook posts emblazoned with Russian flags and the letter `Z` — the invasion symbol on Russian tanks. 

 The latest threat comes after Western intelligence agencies warned that Russian state sponsored hackers would be targeting critical infrastructure. The 

 Alert highlights the activities of Russia's state-sponsored hacking and cyber-crime groups that have  pledged to support the Vladimir Putin administration. 

 Killnet is a hacking group  classified as affiliated with Russia by cyber authorities in the United States, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. 

 Cyber-crime groups are known to pose a threat to critical infrastructure organizations. 

 In March, Killnet released a video promising support for Russia. This video shows a hooded person who speaks to the Russian people in a distorted voice and encourages them not to  doubt their country. The 

  hacker group also claimed to have launched a DDoS attack on a US airport in March 2022 in response to US physical support for Ukraine. 

 These include groups called Killnet, Mummy Spider, Salty Spider, and  Xaknet Team. 

 It's unclear if Kilnet is backed by the Russian government, but  the Five Eyes Alliance spy agency, which consists of Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States, explains that Kilnet is operating as a pro-Russian group. doing. Kremlin profits. 

 Killnet has a history of cyber retaliation. In March, Killnet confidently managed to paralyze the servers of  hacker group Anonymous. 

 The Russian hackers claimed to have struck back at Anonymous for targeting Russian sites and services in response to Putin`s invasion of Ukraine.
