Jaguar Land Rover will restart some of its manufacturing operations in the coming days, the carmaker has said, over a month after it was forced to shut down its plant to deal with a brutal cyber attack that has left dozens of its suppliers on the brink of failure.

“Today we are informing colleagues, retailers and suppliers that some sections of our manufacturing operations will resume in the coming days,”
