Starting on Saturday, March 3, 2018, the Venezuelan investigative journalism website Runrunes (Runrun.es) reported that its server was under a cyberattack that caused its website to go down. On March 5, via its Twitter account, the outlet announced that its servers had been under attack since Saturday and that, despite the censorship, it would continue to report via Twitter and Facebook. The case was documented by the NGO Espacio Público (article published on March 6, 2018). This incident is distinct from the denial-of-service attacks that Runrunes suffered later in May 2019 and December 2021.
