International hacking group Anonymous said Tuesday it would attack the North Korean government at noon (GMT 3:00 a.m.) on the day as it had warned last week.

“Anonymous will attack NorthKorea Govt GMT time 3:00 a.m. Join Us!” a Twitter account claiming to be the hacking group’s Korean branch said on Tuesday.

Last week, the group said that it planned to “display strength” on June 25, which marks the 63rd anniversary of the outbreak of the Korean War.

The hacking group claimed to have successfully penetrated Pyongyang’s intranet and private networks, and obtained information on the country’s military, residents and missiles. It said it would share part of the information with the world.
