The social media accounts of the US military's Central Command in Florida appear to have been hacked by ISIL sympathizers - posting threatening messages against troops, their families and the home addresses of 4-star US generals.
“AMERICAN SOLDIERS, WE ARE COMING, WATCH YOUR BACK. ISIS," read a message posted on the Twitter account with the hashtag "#CyberCaliphate."
