The UK’s Ministry of Defence (MoD) on Sunday said it will launch an investigation after a report suggested the UK’s nuclear secrets could have been put at risk by an old wi-fi contract.

According to the Daily Mail on Sunday, Media Force, one of the armed forces’ wi-fi providers, was partly owned by a Chinese state-owned company for more than three years.
