The Washington Post reports Chinese state-affiliated hackers intercepted audio and texts from unnamed adviser

Chinese state-affiliated hackers intercepted audio from the phone calls of US political figures, including an unnamed campaign adviser of Donald Trump, the Washington Post reported on Sunday.

Various media outlets reported on Friday that the Trump campaign was made aware last week that the Republican presidential candidate and his running mate, JD Vance, were among a number of people inside and outside of government whose phone numbers were targeted through the infiltration of Verizon phone systems.
