(Bloomberg) — Ukraine delayed the publishing of June inflation numbers and issued the data on its Facebook page after a cyber attack last week, the State Statistics Office said.
The agency was initially scheduled to release the data at 3:30 p.m. local time on Monday. Instead, it published it about half-an-hour later on Facebook, without explanation, and the office’s website wasn’t operating.
The office said last week it had suffered a cyber attack that had limited effect. Bloomberg wasn’t able to reach the agency’s spokeswoman for comment on Monday.
The data showed Ukraine’s inflation slowed faster than expected for the sixth consecutive month.
