 **North Korea Hit by Cyberattack**

North Korea reportedly suffered intermittent internet outages after a suspected cyberattack disrupted more than 40 official websites. Network monitoring firm Kentik observed disruptions lasting around 32 hours, beginning Tuesday. 

The incident recalls a major internet blackout in late 2014, which followed controversy surrounding a comedy film depicting a fictional plot to assassinate leader Kim Jong-un. The cause of the latest disruption has not been officially confirmed.
