Central Asian country Kyrgyzstan is under cyberattack, according to Information Warfare Monitor.

The attacks bear similarities to attacks launched by Russia against Estonia and Georgia.

Since last week Kyrgyzstan has been under a "massive denial of service attack", according to Information Warfare Monitor. Three out of four ISPs have been put out of action, while upstream providers in Russia and Kazakhstan have refused traffic due to the scale of the attacks.
