DDoS wave makes Estonian news portal Delfi temporarily unavailable

During a documented August 26 wave of distributed denial-of-service attacks against Estonian media websites, Delfi stated that its news portal was not functioning normally because of cyberattacks and that restoration work was underway. This is the independently verifiable Delfi disruption; the August 22 attacker claim in the input is not itself accepted as proof of that event.
