RuTracker does not work due to DDOS attack

On April 6, I, accidentally trying to access the tracker site, found that it was not available. Having checked that it is not a simple blocking by a local provider, I decided that soon admins would fix everything and the site would work again.
However, when the situation did not change on April 7, I spent a little googling and found out that, according to information from various sources , the site has been under DDOS attack since March 31.
Unfortunately, on Habré, despite the presence of a profile hub, we do not see news from the owners of the resource, and since they left an official comment on their own resource, which is now unavailable, we are not able to read it.
It would be interesting to read their comments on this issue. Does anyone know who is attacking? For what purpose? Is it possible to use the services of companies specializing in protection against such attacks, or is their protection in this case ineffective?

up1: I did not know that there is a blog.rutracker.org , which works separately from the main server and therefore is available

up2: April 8, the site is working fine, thank you very much admins.
