Apparently a small group of Twitter users have been targeted by "state-sponsored" hackers. The e-mail from Twitter didn't specify which government they believed to be behind the attacks.

"We believe that these actors (possibly associated with a government) may have been trying to obtain information such as email addresses, IP addresses, and/or phone numbers. At this time, we have no evidence they obtained your account information, but we're actively investigating this matter. We wish we had more we could share, but we don't have any additional information we can provide at this time."
 
Safe to assume it wasn't the US government since they would already have that info by other means.

That leaves the next 2 biggest suspects, Russia and China.
