US May Consider Cyberattacks on Its Satellites Declaration of War
MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Earlier, a member of the Congress Permanent Select Intelligence Committee (HPSCI) claimed that any cyberattack on American surveillance satellites could be considered an act of war, suggesting that the US should respond to hackers with weapons.

"We have made the decision now to make cyber a domain, as we have land, sea and air," Stoltenberg said.

He added that the decision to declare cyberspace as an operational domain was of big importance for the alliance.

"Cyberattack can trigger collective defense," Stoltenberg added.
