The BBC reports:
The FBI has opened an investigation into allegations from the Trump campaign that it was targeted by hackers working for the Iranian government.
“We can confirm the FBI is investigating the matter,” the agency said in a short statement on Monday without specifically naming the former president or Iran.
A Trump campaign spokesman told the BBC the documents were illegally obtained by “foreign sources hostile to the United States”.

The FBI is also looking into whether Iranian hackers targeted the Joe Biden-Kamala Harris campaign, according to CBS News, the BBC’s news partner, citing people familiar with the investigation.
