Russia is currently holding a vote for its parliament. This is the group of people who help make laws for the country.

Officials in Russia say that someone is trying to mess with their computer systems. They claim there have been online attacks for two days now.

These attacks are trying to stop the voting system from working correctly. It is not clear yet who is behind these digital attacks.

Government workers are trying to block these digital threats to keep the voting going. They want to make sure people can still cast their ballots.
