AP sources: Chinese hackers targeted phones of Trump, Vance, people associated with Harris campaign

Chinese hackers targeted cellphones used by Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, his running mate, JD Vance, and people associated with the Democratic campaign of Kamala Harris. That's according to people familiar with the matter who spoke to The Associated Press Friday. It was not immediately clear what data if any may have been accessed, but U.S. officials are investigating. An FBI statement did not confirm the identities of any of the potential targets but said it was investigating “unauthorized access to commercial telecommunications infrastructure by actors affiliated with the People’s Republic of China.” The New York Times was first to report on the matter.
