Hackers remotely overheat supermarket fridges across Belgium, Luxembourg stores
A wave of cyberattacks caused refrigeration systems to malfunction at supermarkets in Belgium and Luxembourg, with temperatures in some units reportedly rising to 50°C and forcing retailers to discard spoiled food. Affected chains include Ahold Delhaize's Delhaize stores, Colruyt Group's Spar outlets, Carrefour, Intermarché and IKEA's Mons location, though most companies say operations have since returned to normal.
