Millions of US military emails have been mistakenly sent to Mali, a Russian ally, because of a minor typing error.

Emails intended for the US military’s “.mil” domain have, for years, been sent to the west African country which ends with the “.ml” suffix.

Some of the emails reportedly contained sensitive information such as passwords, medical records and the itineraries of top officers.
