6 Russian military officers charged in vast hacking campaign
By ERIC TUCKER Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) — Six Russian military officers sought to disrupt through computer hacking the French election, the Winter Olympics and U.S. businesses. A Justice Department indictment details attacks on a broad range of political, financial and athletic targets.  It accuses the defendants, all alleged officers in the Russian military agency known as the GRU, in destructive attacks on Ukraine’s power grid and in a hack-and-leak effort directed at the political party of French President Emmanuel Macron during the 2017 election. The indictment does not charge the defendants in connection with interference in American elections.
