A cyberattack on the Washington Post compromised email accounts of several journalists and was potentially the work of a foreign government, company officials told some affected staffers in recent days, according to people familiar with the situation.

The reporters targeted include those on the national-security and economic-policy teams, including some who write about China, the people said.
