It seems that there has been a major cyber-security breach at several train stations in the UK, causing them to display alarming terrorism-related messages. Among the affected stations are London Euston, Manchester Piccadilly, and 11 others managed by Network Rail. According to reports, the Wi-Fi system at these stations has been hacked by an unknown third party.
Those who have tried to connect to Network Rail's Wi-Fi have been met with a webpage titled "we love you, Europe", which contains disturbing messages targeting the Muslim community and information about past terrorist attacks in the UK, including the tragic 2017 Manchester Bombing. This has caused concern and confusion among passengers and station staff alike.
The hack has also affected other major stations such as London Victoria, Birmingham New Street, Glasgow Central, Leeds City, Liverpool Lime Street, Bristol Temple Meads, Edinburgh Waverley, Reading, and Guildford. It is unclear at this point how long the stations will be impacted and what measures are being taken to resolve the issue.
A spokesperson for Network Rail has stated that they are currently dealing with the cyber security incident and have suspended the public Wi-Fi service while an investigation is underway. It has been confirmed that the Wi-Fi service is provided by a third party, which adds another layer of complexity to the situation.
As of 9pm, the incident is still ongoing and efforts are being made to contain and resolve the issue. The British Transport Police have been contacted for comment and it is expected that they will be working closely with Network Rail to address this concerning incident. Passengers are advised to exercise caution and to report any suspicious activity to the authorities.
