DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — The website of Iran's Central Bank was briefly taken down on Wednesday as the Anonymous hacking group claimed it had targeted the websites of several Iranian state agencies.

The apparent cyberattack came amid days of protests over the death of a woman who was detained by the country's morality police for allegedly wearing her Islamic headscarf too loosely. It also came hours before Iran's President Ebrahim Raisi was to address the United Nations General Assembly.
