LONDON — The WikiLeaks website, which contains thousands of cables from U.S. embassies, has crashed in an apparent cyber attack.
The anti-secrecy organization said in a Twitter message Tuesday that “is presently under attack.” Efforts to view the WikiLeaks site and view links to cables were unsuccessful.
The apparent cyberattack comes as the accelerated public disclosure of tens of thousands of previously unreleased State Department cables by the WikiLeaks organization has raised concerns about the exposure of confidential U.S. sources.
