Al-Arabiya News Channel Changes Domain Name After Hack Attack

Posted on October 12th, 2008 by admin in Domain News | No Comments »

Dubai-based Al-Arabiya news channel changed it’s domain to www.alarabiya.tv on Friday after its website at alarabiya.net was hacked. Hackers accusing the Saudi-owned TV of being pro-Sunni shut down the channel’s news website in a cyber attack, claiming to be in retaliation for the recent attacks on Shiite websites.

A warning message saying: “if attacks on Shiite websites continue, none of your websites will be safe,” was displayed on the front page of the site.

The original alarabiya.net domain name is now redirected to alarabiya.tv most likely with the aid of the registrar.

According to the source article, in the past few months, Sunni-Shiite hacking war has affected around 900 websites.
