Iranian operatives charged in US with hacking Trump's presidential campaign - Business Standard

Quick Summary:

The latest action, coupled with sanctions and rewards for information leading to the hackers' capture, is the latest US government effort to call out what's seen as Iran's attempts to interfere in the election by damaging Trump and sowing general chaos.

The Justice Department unsealed criminal charges Friday against three Iranian operatives suspected of hacking Donald Trump's presidential campaign and disseminating stolen information to media organisations.

It comes as Iran has also been accused of threatening the lives of Trump and former officials and US-Iran relations remain especially tense with Israel fighting Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon.
