Hackers in Turkey have attacked more than 5,000 Swedish Web sites in the past week, and at least some of the sabotage appears linked to Muslim anger over a Swedish newspaper drawing that depicted the Prophet Muhammad’s head on a dog’s body.
Around 1,600 Web sites hosted by server-provider Proinet and 3,800 sites hosted by another company have been targeted, Proinet spokesman Kjetil Jensen said Sunday. Jensen said hackers, operating on a Turkish network, at times replaced files on the sites with messages.
According to Swedish news agency TT, the Web site of a children’s cartoon called Bamse was replaced by a message saying Islam’s prophet had been insulted.
The incidents have been reported to the police.
