Hackers Claim to Have 'Confidential' IAEA Information

VIENNA (Reuters) – Anti-Israel hackers, who the U.N. nuclear agency this week said had posted data online stolen from one of its servers, claimed in a new statement they had published confidential material obtained from the watchdog.

The statement – in the name of a group with an Iranian-sounding name – was put on a website hours after U.N. nuclear chief Yukiya Amano said on Thursday he did not believe sensitive nuclear “safeguards” information had been compromised.
