Wikileaks is accusing a “state party” of “intentionally” cutting off Julian Assange’s Internet connection, vowing to find other ways to get its leader’s message out.

The controversial website sent out a tweet early Monday, saying, “Julian Assange’s internet link has been intentionally severed by a state party. We have activated the appropriate contingency plans.”

The announcement came just hours after the site published three cryptic tweets, referencing Ecuador, Secretary of State John Kerry and the United Kingdom’s Foreign Commonwealth Office. Each tweet was accompanied by a string of numbers that added up to 64-character codes.

Rumors spread like wildfire on Gizmodo, Reddit and Twitter that the codes meant that Assange had either died or the numbers triggered a so-called “dead man’s switch,” which could be enacted in the event of Assange’s death.

Meanwhile, a bank in the United Kingdom has pulled the plug on the accounts of TV news channel Russia Today, according to reports.

The Kremlin-backed broadcaster was sent a recent letter by NatWest, stating that, “We have recently undertaken a review of your banking arrangements with us and reached the conclusion that we will no longer provide these facilities,” RT reported Monday.

NatWest will reportedly shut down the station’s accounts by Dec. 12 with no negotiations.

The letter specified that the Royal Bank of Scotland Group, which includes NatWest, would also refuse to do business with RT.

The move comes after the US and Britain said Sunday they were considering further sanctions against Moscow due to Russia’s consistent airstrikes against civilians in Aleppo, Syria.

RT’s Editor-in-Chief Margarita Simonyan expressed her contempt for Nat West in a tweet written in Russian, saying, “Long live freedom of speech!”

Assange has been holed up for the past four years at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London after he was charged with sexual assaulting two women in Sweden. Since then, the Ecuadorian government has been considering his request for political asylum.
