The campaign posters of the Peace & Justice Party (Fred og rettferdighet, FOR) on the Oslo Metro have garnered a lot of attention the past few days. On Monday, May 19th, the party’s website experienced downtime, the news publication Dagen reports.
The party itself states that the downtime is due to a cyberattack.
“Peace & Justice’s website is currently being attacked. We apologize if our website has bad functionality,” a message on the website reads.
The Peace & Justice Party created much ado over the weekend as campaign posters appeared on the Oslo Metro. The party is campaigning in fall’s parliamentary election, and believes that the 85 billion NOK that the Storting plans to use on support for Ukraine, should instead be spent on welfare in Norway.
The campaign may have costed 1.4 million NOK, but the party has only registered 50,000 NOK in campaign donations, according to VG. The party has thus far refused to say who has financed the campaign.
