Abstract
<jats:p>This article discusses the challenges of establishing responsibility for the crime of aggression within the framework of international criminal law. Special attention is given to the commission of the crime of aggression through cyberattacks – that is, to cyber aggression. In addition, the article explores the possibility of aggression being considered a continuing crime. By analyzing the elements of Article 8 bis of the Rome Statute, the author concludes that the legal construction provided in Article 8 bis significantly complicates its application to acts of cyber aggression. At the same time, the author argues for both the possibility and even the necessity of including cyber‑based acts of aggression under the crime of aggression, taking into account modern security threats.</jats:p>
