KYIV, Jan 14 (Reuters) - The content of Ukraine's government websites was not changed during the recent cyber attack and no personal data was leaked, the government said on Friday.

It said in a statement that a number of other government websites had been suspended to prevent the attack from spreading to other resources but most of the affected state resources had already been restored.

A massive cyberattack warning Ukrainians to "be afraid and expect the worst" hit government websites on Thursday night, leaving some websites inaccessible on Friday morning and prompting Ukraine to open an investigation. (Reporting by Pavel Polityuk; Editing by Toby Chopra)
