US accuses Iran of hacking Trump and Harris presidential campaigns
Republican presidential candidate and former president, Donald Trump, and Republican vice presidential candidate Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio, watch with their families as the balloons fall during the final day of the Republican National Convention, July 18, 2024, in Milwaukee.
US intelligence officials say they’ve confirmed findings made by Google cybersecurity researchers that Iran has tried to hack the Trump and Harris presidential campaigns. Also, Slovakia’s culture minister has fired the directors of the Slovak National Gallery and the country’s most influential theater, which the artistic community says is a crackdown on artistic expression. And, a legal debate on who own the rights to the diaries of Li Rui, once a top Chinese official and a personal secretary to Mao Zedong. Plus, a food blogger in Gaza who makes recipes using the ingredients from food aid packages handed out at refugee camps and anything else he can scrounge up.
