NEW: Hackers have taken down the infrastructure of the Linux-based operating system Ubuntu, and some of its websites.
We verified that updates fail, and developers said the outage is affecting some APIs too.
A group of hacktivists claimed responsibility, saying they used a DDoS-for-hire service.

"The *Islamic Cyber Resistance in Iraq 313 Team* claimed on its Telegram channel that it was to blame for the DDoS attack." I think they spelled MOSAD wrong.
