The online group of hackers, known as "Anonymous," claims they were able to get into Russian state TV to show the true extent of Putin's invasion of Ukraine.

The group shared footage of the deed which shows a TV showing the destruction in Ukraine as the war entered its 12th day.

The lower chamber of Russia's parliament recently approved a law that threatens those who publish false information about the war.

A prison sentence of up to 15 years is possible for people found guilty of a crime, according to The Independent.

The footage was shared on pro-Kremlin channels and it showed the aftermath of missile attacks that have taken too many innocent lives.

The war was waged by Putin's regime and not ordinary citizens, according to a written message at the end of the video. This alleged hack was intended to keep the Russian people aware of what is happening in the global community as the government has stepped up censorship and blocked access to foreign news outlets and Facebook.

Russia 24, Moscow 24, Channel One, and Ivi were the first to show the video. All Russian-state TV channels have been hacked.

The audio of the Ukrainian national anthem is said to have been hacked by the group. Activists are broadcasting troll faces on Russian military radio.

The Kremlin's official website was taken down by the hackers on February 26th, after they claimed to be in a Cyberwar against the Russian government.

The hackers group reported that this is the biggest operation they have ever seen, and that they only want peace, raising concerns about being seen as a threat by some government.

We are #Anonymous
We are involved in the biggest Anonymous op ever seen. That being said, we are worried that some governments will indeed see us as a threat and create some scenario to make us look bad (false flag). We only want peace, not war. (continued)
