Is there any indication they come from Russia?
The hacker group is ๐๐_๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ according to their Profile, they are in Staraya Russa, Novgorod region
But! It might be a false flag.
Thanks for additional info!
That's interesting, actually. I can't see why Russia the state would be interested in this (it already has issues accessing certain sources, so messing with a free open library is shooting oneself in the foot), so it's either truly for the lulz (which are probably the most questionable lulz in history), or there's some truly mastermind plot behind this.
