Luxembourg's parliament will hold an emergency session on Thursday to scrutinise last week's cyberattack on Post Luxembourg, which left the country without critical telecom services for hours.

Following last week's cyberattack on Post Luxembourg, Minister of the Economy Lex Delles is set to appear before a joint session of three parliamentary committees on Thursday morning to provide clarification on the incident. At the request of the Luxembourg Socialist Workers' Party (LSAP), lawmakers will hold an urgent meeting via video conference to discuss the breach and possible next steps.

Two days after the incident, the Service for Cyber and Network Security – part of the Luxembourg Regulatory Institute (ILR) – reportedly issued an advisory email urging organisations to reassess their IT security measures.

The attack, which disrupted Post's internet, mobile, and fixed networks for four hours, caused significant disruptions across the country. According to a report by business magazine Paperjam on Wednesday, the attack specifically targeted Huawei routers and their software.

Huawei, a Chinese tech giant, has faced long-standing allegations of espionage from Western critics – claims the company has consistently denied. In 2024, Germany moved to restrict Huawei components in its 5G network expansion, though existing infrastructure still relies on the company's technology.
