Italy convenes emergency meeting after cyberattack hits European supermarket freezers

Italian officials held an emergency meeting with intelligence agencies on the cyberattack that raised temperatures in supermarket freezers across at least 11 European countries, and announced a coordinated EU response. The incident follows earlier reports that operators of chains such as Coop, ICA and Ahold Delhaize in the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg and Sweden experienced sudden refrigeration failures, which they attributed to a coordinated cyberattack. Al Jazeera also noted that similar attacks affected U.

S. military bases, causing food spoilage and financial losses.
