In addition to all the hacking claims, Anonymous had released a warning to Putin last month, telling him his 'secrets may no longer be safe'.
“Mr Putin, the ongoing invasion of Ukraine has shown that your regime has no respect for human rights or the self-determination of your neighbours," a masked figure said in the clip.
"In the past several days, a full-scale invasion has commenced, civilian neighbourhoods have been bombed and innocent people have been killed. Refugees are fleeing the violence and the population is being forced into conscription by Ukrainian officials. This is an ugly situation all around but you are the instigator," it added.
