Postal services in France are severely disrupted in the final days before Christmas after a cyber-attack upon La Poste. The French post operator La Poste was the victim of a cyber-attack on Saturday, leading to severe disruption in mail services in the final days before Christmas. A director of La Poste told French media that customer details were not affected, but the attack was having a serious effect on deliveries. The group said that deliveries of packages and letters were "disrupted but continuing" on Tuesday. Parcels can still be collected from post offices, but other services such as online tracking of deliveries are not available.
"The first half of this year was an extraordinary moment in time for M&S. However, the underlying strength of our business and robust financial foundations gave us the resilience to face into the challenge and deal with it. We are now getting back on track,"
The Ministry of Defence (MoD) has admitted there have been more than 12 times as many data breaches linked to its Afghan Relocations and Assistance Policy (Arap) programme than previously thought. Until now, a total of four breaches were known to have hit Arap, a scheme established back in April 2021 to bring Afghan citizens at risk of Taliban persecution to safety in the UK. However, according to Freedom of Information (FoI) figures released to the BBC, the true number is actually 49.
