Thousands of Serbian internet users are hindering the rebels in their fight against Gaddafi by waging a cyber war, the Libyan Youth Movement claims. The opposition movement claims that 50,000 “hackers” from Serbia are involved in the operation supporting the Libyan leader. Libyan opposition accuses "50,000 Serb hackers" “Users from Serbia have launched a pro-Gaddafi movement on Facebook, Twitter, Myspace, YouTube and other social networks,” Libyan Youth Movement said in a release which was submitted to Tanjug news agency. “After consultations with the networks’ administrators we have assessed that more than 50,000 internet users from Serbia are actively involved in supporting Gaddafi,” it is said in the statement. “Media have been giving a lot of attention to the activities that have attracted Gaddafi’s supporters from other countries and Libyan state television regularly airs what Gaddafi’s supporters from Serbia write in order to show that he still has support in other countries,” the opposition group complained. “Aside from that, a large number of users from Serbia are waging a war on the internet against anti-Gaddafi groups and websites and they hack, spam or take down websites connected to forces that fight against Gaddafi, NATO, U.S., France, Britain,” said they. The movement also noted that "for such a small country as Serbia, with a relatively modest number of internet users", organizing more than 50,000 actively involved Gaddafi’s supporters who jointly act online "represented a grand project that demanded a lot of work, commitment and money". “We suspect that there are powerful political organizations and political parties behind this pro-Gaddafi movement and we call on the international community to urgently do something about it,” the Libyan opposition movement concluded.
