Hacktivists are trying to influence the situation between Russia and Ukraine.
As the Russian military gathers forces near the Ukrainian border, a hacktivist group known as Cyber Partisans are claiming they have hacked a Belarusian railway system to disrupt weaponry build up.
The railway is being used by the Russian military to move weapons into a region of Belarus, which is a key area for Moscow if they want to invade Ukraine. The hacktivist group called on Alexander Lukashenko to stop aiding the Russian military.
The government continues to keep thousands of political prisoners, despite the fact that they have suppressed the free will of the people. They said they want to overthrow the regime.
Cyber-Partisans attacked the network of Belarusian Railways. They encrypted the servers, databases, & workstations to slow down the arrival of 🇷🇺 troops to Belarus. They demand the release of 50 polit. prisoners with hard health conditions, & stop the deployment of 🇷🇺 army. pic.twitter.com/9ImDVrpMan

The railway appears to have been shut down by cyber Partisans. The railway released a statement to travelers explaining technical reasons for delayed travel.
One cybersecurity expert told Ars that the images the group used to establish their hack show that the tool could be used as a tool for the less well-off in what amounts to a revolutionary struggle.
This is not likely to deter Russian forces for long. It is still a very cyberpunk way to try and prevent a military takeover of Ukraine and at the same time slow down the potential onslaught of World War III.
