Unidentified hackers attacked the website of Le Soir, a French language Belgian newspaper, the director general of the daily said.

"Le Soir fell victim of a cyberattack," Didier Hamann said on his Twitter account Sunday.

According to Hamann, there is no immediate evidence that the incident is linked to the recent massive cyberattack against the French TV channel TV5Monde so far.

On Wednesday night, 11 channels, a website and social media accounts of TV5 Monde network were knocked out.

The hackers posted a statement on the TV5 Monde's Facebook page, saying that French President Francois Hollande had made a mistake in supporting the US-led international coalition carrying out airstrikes against Islamic State (IS) militants in Iraq and Syria.

Both France and Belgium are members of the US-led operation. In February, Belgium pledged to send about 35 servicemen to Iraq to help train its army in the fight against the IS.
