Patel's private email, photos hacked by Iranian govt.-linked group

Iranian government-linked "malicious actors," apart of a group that refers to themselves as "Handala," have reportedly compromised the personal email account of FBI Director Kash Patel and published private photos and correspondence online.

Federal authorities confirmed the breach, noting that while the leaked data includes his "historical" personal files and images, dating back to 2010, fortunately, no classified U.S. government systems or information were accessed.
