Hackers targeted hundreds of French supermarkets, causing refrigerators and freezers to overheat, reaching up to 50°C (122°F) overnight and spoiling food. Chains including Carrefour, Monoprix, Intermarché and Coopérative U were affected, and Les Mousquetaires expects 'several million euros' in losses across around 180 stores after a service provider managing refrigeration systems was hit.

Interpol's cybersecurity chief says AI is increasing the scale and speed of cyberattacks.
