From US says Iran tried to influence election by sending material from Trump campaign to Biden’s camp
Iranian cyber actors sent messages during the summer to people involved in US President Joe Biden’s then re-election campaign containing non-public material from Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s campaign as part of efforts to influence the November 5 election, US agencies says.
“Furthermore, Iranian malicious cyber actors have continued their efforts since June to send stolen, non-public material associated with former President Trump’s campaign to US media organizations,” the FBI, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency and Office of the Director of National Intelligence say in a joint statement.
Iran denies interfering in US elections. Iran’s permanent mission to the United Nations in New York doesn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
