A group claiming to be from Iran hacked a U.S. government website on Saturday night, which comes as tensions between the United States and Iran reached new heights after the U.S. killed Qasem Soleimani, the head of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Quds Force, which is a designated terrorist organization.

FOX 5 reporter Lauren DeMarco tweeted, “Right now: Working to learn more but the Federal Depository Library Program website appears to have been hacked by someone claiming to be from Iran.”
