(LEAD) Key Korean Web sites sustain renewed cyber attacks

SEOUL, July 9 (Yonhap) -- South Korea on Thursday came under a third round of cyber attacks, with the nation's key government and private Web sites reporting temporary paralyses or severe access disruptions, government and industry officials said.

At least seven Web sites operated by government and media organizations, including Kookmin Bank, the Ministry of Public Administration and Security's electronic government site, the mass-circulation Chosun Ilbo and leading portal Naver, reported access delays and failures starting around 6 p.m., said the officials.
