Royal Mail has said it is facing severe disruption to its international export services after a “cyber incident”.
“We are temporarily unable to despatch items to overseas destinations,” it said.
“Some customers may experience delay or disruption to items already shipped for export.
“Our import operations continue to perform a full service with some minor delays.”
The firm added that they had launched an investigation into the incident and were “working with external experts” and “sincerely apologised” to their customers for the disruption.
