VIENNA – The Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe has been the target of a cyber attack, a spokeswoman said on Dec. 28.

The French newspaper Le Monde said a Russian hacker group was behind the attack, but the OSCE, a security and human rights watchdog, said it did not have the capability to investigate the report.
