MPs demand answers over fears UK officials' phones hacked during Chagos negotiations
Briefly

The investigation into the claims regarding a major hack of the British High Commission's phones during the Chagos Island negotiations could have significant implications for national security, given the sensitivity of the situation.
Liberal Democrat MP James MacCleary urged the government to provide clarity on the ongoing investigation, emphasizing the need for transparency when a potential security breach within the commission is at stake.
Government officials have indicated that the claims of hacks are being looked into by authorities in Mauritius, suggesting that the implications of any wrongdoing could extend beyond just the recent negotiations.
The Chagos Islands situation remains complex, particularly due to the presence of a US military base on Diego Garcia, which heightens the stakes for both diplomatic relations and national security.
