JAKARTA Platform X, previously known as Twitter, is difficult for its users to access on Monday, March 10 at around 16.40 WIB. Even in Indonesia, this problem still appears until 21.00 WIB.

Many complaints arise about X that cannot be accessed and users cannot make posts. According to Downdetector data, the error in the X app causes the timeline to be non-renewable and the user is stuck in the loading cycle.

Elon Musk, the owner of the platform, rarely commented when his platform had problems and was difficult to access. However, this time Musk spoke up and said that his platform was hit by a massive cyberattack.

"There are (still) massive cyberattacks against X. We are attacked every day, but this is done with a lot of resources. Both large coordinated groups and/or a country are involved," Musk wrote on his personal account on Tuesday, March 11.

When someone said that this cyber group wanted to silence Musk and his platform, Musk confidently replied 'Yes'. Musk also gave the same statement to Fox Business through an interview.

Musk said that his platform was indeed under attack and currently X is still looking for the reasons behind the attack. The billionaire also said that his party managed to track down the attacker's IP address and it was discovered that this cyberattack came from Ukraine.

"We are not sure what really happened. However, there was a massive cyberattack to try to paralyze system X with an IP address originating from Ukrainian territory," Musk said in the interview.

Currently, X has fully recovered and users can already see the latest posts, exchange messages, or upload posts. If your application is still having problems, try to delete and download the application again.
