Facebook, Twitter, and similar sites are banned by Chinese soldiers, but their hackers are "harassing" the Internet, say American and European experts who blame Chinese hackers for the latest "hacking" of Gmail addresses of US officials.

By making friends on the Internet, you can fall into the hands of the "enemy", warns the newspaper of the Chinese army, which states that about 2.3 million soldiers will no longer be able to use social networks.

The largest army in the world has informed its members that it will strictly implement the ban in order to "ensure military secrets and purity and solidarity" of the People's Liberation Army, state media reported.

Last week, the daily reported that the Chinese army had formed an elite special unit to secure the Internet from the increasing number of cyberattacks while denying that the goal was to create an "army of hackers".

The United States, Australia, Germany, and other Western countries claim that hackers from China allegedly carry out various types of intrusions into the computer systems of their governments and companies, which the Chinese authorities deny.

The last such case, which is supposed to have been carried out by Chinese hackers, happened these days. Namely, hackers broke into the internet accounts on the Gmail network of high American officials, Chinese dissidents, military officials, and journalists, it was announced from Google, specifying that the attack was carried out from China.

"We recently discovered an operation aimed at collecting passwords. It seems that the goal of that campaign was to control the content of the account ", stated the office of Google, Eric Gross.

The hackers allegedly launched an intrusion into Gmail from Jinan, a city in northwest China.

Their action affected hundreds of accounts on that network, including the orders of American officials, journalists, Chinese dissidents, high-ranking military officials, and other officials from several Asian countries, primarily South Korea, Gross said.
