Those websites were hit by (assumed) DNS poisoning attack. It is the same attack used by KDMS hacker team in defacing high profile websites, Eset, Rapid7, Whatsapp, LeaseWeb, and Team Madleets in Google Kenya and Burundi.
Currently, the websites are already fixed but thenewsinfo.com managed to grab a screen capture of defacements.
This time, those websites are not defaced as a protest influenced by politics or religion, but to challenge another hacking team in the scene – Team Madleets.
