Russia hacking: 'FSB in years-long cyber attacks on UK', says government

The UK is accusing Russia's Security Service, the FSB, of a sustained cyber-hacking campaign, targeting politicians and others in public life.
The government said one group stole data through cyber-attacks, which was later made public, including material linked to the 2019 election.
Russia has repeatedly denied claims it is involved in such activities.
Foreign Secretary David Cameron said the group's actions were "completely unacceptable".
"Despite their repeated efforts, they have failed. We will continue to work together with our allies to expose Russian covert cyber activity and hold Russia to account for its actions," the former prime minister said.
