Iran Confirmed to Have Hacked Trump's Campaign

US intelligence agencies have confirmed that Iran was behind the recent hacking of Donald Trump's presidential campaign.

The FBI and other federal agencies jointly stated that Iran aimed to disrupt the US election and erode trust in democratic institutions.

This interference involved a spear-phishing email, designed to trick the target into clicking a malicious link, which the Trump campaign believes led to the theft of internal messages.

The intelligence community believes Iran targeted both political parties, aiming to influence the US election process through data theft and leaks.
