The war in Ukraine isn\\u2019t just happening on the ground, it\\u2019s also happening in cyberspace. It\\u2019s under reported and little understood, but just as the resilience of Urkainian\\u2019s kinetic defense is grinding against Russia, so too is the war online.


Which is funny, because Russia is supposed to be good at this. At least \\u2026 that\\u2019s what we all used to think. Hell, maybe it even used to be true. But now a team of volunteer hackers called the Ukraine IT Army is defending Kyiv and striking back against Moscow.


This week on Cyber, Motherboard staff writer Lorenzo Franchesci-Biccherai takes us into the Ukraine IT Army.
