The Ministry of Education of Panama (Meduca) reported on Tuesday afternoon, 18 August about cyber attacks on the institution's website.
The page was down for several minutes, preventing thousands of students from accessing educational material at this time of distance education.
We condemn this type of practice that endangers the training of thousands of students nationwide, undermining their distance education, harming those who ensure the development of our country, said the entity.
Virtual education is the education form applied currently in Panama due to the closure of schools and other educational establishments due to the
COVID-19 pandemic.
