TOKYO -- Palau's President Surangel Whipps said on Wednesday that the island country was hit by a major cyberattack in March, just as it reached an agreement with the U.S. on a two-decade aid package.
"The source came from somewhere in Malaysia with traces back to China," said the president in a news conference in Tokyo, citing an analysis by Palau's experts on the attack. He added that it was the "first major attack" according to the island nation's government records.
