The Twitter account of Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko’s administration was hacked on Tuesday and its most recent tweets should be ignored as they are fake, the presidential press service said.

Right Sector Hacks Ukraine Security Council’s Twitter Account
"The presidential administration's Twitter was hacked and the Administration is not responsible for its most recent tweets,” the presidential press service said in a statement.

A tweet that had earlier appeared on the administration’s account said that President Poroshenko had ordered a criminal probe into the Right Sector fighters’ unauthorized decision to abandon their positions in the so-called Anti-Terrorist Operation (ATO) zone in the country’s eastern Donbass region.

The administration said its account had been hacked after a post appeared on its Twitter account which said that Right Sector was withdrawing from the frontlines of the ATO zone, which was also denied by the administration.
