Carabinieri police on
Monday were investigating how the website of a high school in
the Florentine suburb of Scandicci was hacked by a group calling
itself the Moroccan Islamic Union Mail.
The incident is being probed to "understand where the
violation comes from", investigators said.
The website of the school, the Istituto Comprensivo
Scandicci Uno, was hacked on Sunday afternoon.
The hackers took over the web page, posting a video on the
"supremacy of the Muslim religion" under the hashtag #the truth
will prevail.
The video, which was also posted to YouTube, "does not
include defaming news nor hails terrorism", investigators said.
The web page displayed a message saying the hackers did "not
want muscle flexing" but just vied "to get our message across".
Education Undersecretary Gabriele Toccafondi on Monday said
authorities were trying "to understand the nature of the
incident".
