Venezuela's state oil company said on the 15th that it suffered a cyber attack but was not significantly affected.

The company issued a statement via social media, stating that only its management systems were attacked, while its main operations remained unaffected, and domestic oil supply and export activities were proceeding normally. The attack was planned by foreign stakeholders, involving stateless individuals, aimed at undermining Venezuela's energy development rights, reflecting the "U.S. government's strategy of seizing Venezuelan oil through force and piracy." Venezuela's state oil company strongly condemned this action
