The official website of the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has reportedly been hacked, causing users to be redirected to a Chinese website instead of the weather portal.
According to reports, the breach happened due to a harmful JavaScript code injected into the site. This script is believed to be responsible for redirecting visitors. Many users suspect that the attack may have come from China because of the language used in the script.
This incident has raised serious concerns about the security of government websites in Pakistan. Experts stress the need for stronger cybersecurity measures to prevent such attacks in the future. Cyber threats are increasing, and government websites are often targeted due to the sensitive information they hold.
Authorities have yet to issue an official statement about the breach, but cybersecurity specialists recommend that the PMD take immediate action to remove the malicious code and secure its website. In the meantime, users are advised to avoid visiting the site until the issue is resolved.
This hacking incident highlights the urgent need for Pakistan to strengthen its digital security and protect critical online platforms from cyber threats.
