UNITED NATIONS: United Nations experts investigating violations of sanctions on North Korea have suffered a "sustained" cyberattack by unknown hackers with "very detailed insight" into their work, according to an e-mail warning seen by Reuters.
The hackers eventually breached the computer of one of the experts on May 8, the chair of the panel of experts wrote in an e-mail to UN officials and the UN Security Council's North Korea sanctions committee, known as the 1718 committee.
