Pro-Iranian hackers have breached critical U.S. infrastructure, according to a joint warning issued on April 7 by several federal agencies.

The advisory came only hours ahead of President Donald Trump’s April 7 deadline for Iran, warning that “a whole civilization will die tonight” if Iran refuses to open the Hormuz Strait to oil traffic. Trump later suspended the attack following negotiations mediated by Pakistan.
