KYIV (Reuters) - Unidentified hackers briefly took down a promotional website for Ukraine's foreign ministry for several hours on Wednesday, the ministry said, amid increased tensions between Kyiv and Moscow over a massive build-up of Russian forces near their borders.

The website Ukraine.ua, which aims to promote the country among foreigners, was later restored. The ministry gave no further details.
