Twitter said it was a "co-ordinated" attack targeting its employees "with access to internal systems and tools".

"We know they [the hackers] used this access to take control of many highly-visible (including verified) accounts and Tweet on their behalf," the company said in a series of tweets .

It added that "significant steps" were taken to limit access to such internal systems and tools while the company's investigation was ongoing.
