Supporters of the Anonymous hacker group attacked Interpol's main website after the international police agency conducted a number of hacker arrests across the globe.

­The website Interpol.int was unreachable for a half hour on Wednesday, Forbes reports. Access was later restored, although the loading time remains slow. The attack appears to have been conducted using a botnet. Anonymous Twitter accounts tweeted “interpol.int seems to be #TangoDown. We can’t say that this surprises us much," and "Looks like interpol.int is having some traffic issues. Now who would have expected that?”

The attacks came after police in Argentina, Chile, Colombia and Spain conducted raids as part of Interpol’s “Operation Unmask” against hacker activities. The police arrested a number of suspects aged from 17 to 40 and also seized computers, mobile phones, credit cards and cash at 40 premises in 15 cities.
