The official website of the National Olympic Committee of Armenia (NOCA) www.armnoc.am is not working since Wednesday, March 17, when Turkish hackers disrupted it posting their flag and statements on denial of the Armenian Genocide (1915) there.

Natela Hovasapyan, NOCA spokesperson, told ArmeniaNow they are not able to recover the website yet, and they have no idea how long it will last.

This is not the first time when Turks or Azeris hack an Armenian website. Samvel Martirosyan, a specialist in information tampering, told ArmeniaNow that the reasons (for hacking the NOCA website) are not clear yet, adding that the site is weak and is one of dozens hacked annually.

According to Martirosyan, Turkish and Azeri hackers interrupt official sites on a regular basis.
