UN experts are investigating 58 cyberattacks who, according to their estimates, come from North Korea, and claim that at these attacks the country has received about three billion dollars to support its nuclear program. The international community is outrage due to violations of the sanctions imposed by the Security Council. According to UN documents, since 2006, North Korea has been under sanctions that have been regularly intensified in an attempt to stop financing its nuclear programs.
The UN Commission noted that the object of cyberattacks were companies related to cryptocurrencies between 2017 and 2023, and the total amount that was stolen is about $ three billion. These funds were directed to fund nuclear weapons development.
According to experts, attacks included attacks on defense companies, supply chains and even attempts to access critical infrastructure. In addition, official statements say that North Korea continues to ignore international sanctions, actively developing its nuclear weapons and conducting nuclear tests. In addition, Pyongyang continues to launch ballistic missiles, brings out satellites into orbit and replenishes its arsenal with new dangerous weapons.
