My old MacBook was stolen by russian soldiers

Hello. I am from Ukraine and my MacBook pro 2014 was stolen by russian soldiers. The problem is that 6 month ago i deleted that MacBook from my iCloud and now i can not delete data there via iCloud on my iPhone. Can you help me to delete data from that old MacBook? I had a lot of important files and very private photos and videos there. I have a password there but they can easily recover it. That macbook was in my iCloud but i have deleted it from there. You can search that a MacBook pro 2014 was linked to my iCloud **** @ukr.net Guys please help me! I don't want russians to see all my photos and post them into the internet...

Hi pylyp128,


Sorry for your misfortune.


Unfortunately, if your laptop was removed from your iCloud account, there is no way for you to remotely erase or secure it.


Use the Get Support link at top of this page to contact Apple to determine if you have any other support options.


Best of luck to you, and please stay safe.
