German Chancellor Angela Merkel has confirmed that she was targeted by hackers thought to be Russian military intelligence (GRU).
She was asked in parliament about a German magazine report that the GRU had obtained emails from her constituency office in a hacking attack in 2015.
"It pains me," she said, describing the hacking as "outrageous".
But the German chancellor added that she would continue to "strive for good relations with Russia".
