Royal Mail 'cyber incident' hits overseas post [View all]
Royal Mail says it is unable to send letters and parcels overseas after a "cyber incident".

It is understood that the National Cyber Security Centre, which is part of the UK's cyber intelligence agency GCHQ, is involved in trying to work out what has happened.
