Morocco links cyberattacks to diplomatic progress on Sahara issue

Morocco has blamed recent cyberattacks on two government institutions on hostile actors seeking to undermine its diplomatic progress on the Sahara issue, reports the Moroccan government friendly Hespress on April 10th.

Sensitive data from the National Social Security Fund was leaked and partially distorted online.

The attacks coincided with the US reaffirming recognition of Moroccan sovereignty over the Sahara.
