The personal mobile phone of British Prime Minister Liz Truss was hacked by cyber spies suspected of working for the Kremlin, the Daily Mail reported.

According to the British tabloid, the cyber-spies are believed to have gained access to top-secret exchanges with key international partners as well as private conversations with his friend, the British Conservative Party politician Kwasi Kwarteng.

“Liz Truss’s personal mobile phone was hacked by agents suspected of working for the Kremlin, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.” read the report published by Daily Mail. “One source said that the phone was so heavily compromised that it has now been placed in a locked safe inside a secure Government location.” The cyberspies compromised Truss’s phone during the summer’s Tory leadership campaign when Ms. Truss was Foreign Secretary. Boris Johnson, who was Prime Minister at the time, and the Cabinet Secretary, Simon Case decided to keep secret the hack.
