GENEVA (AN) — Hackers broke into computer servers hosting data belonging to the International Committee of the Red Cross and gained access to confidential information on more than half a million "highly vulnerable people," the ICRC said.
The data breach compromised at least 60 Red Cross and Red Crescent National Societies around the world. It affects 515,000 people who have been "separated from their families due to conflict, migration and disaster, missing persons and their families, and people in detention," ICRC officials said on Wednesday.
