According to the BBC, supermarkets in at least nine European countries have reported anomalies in their refrigerated or frozen equipment, with multiple incidents involving cyberattacks. Some equipment temperatures reportedly rose to as high as 50°C, forcing businesses to discard food. EU officials have warned that such incidents could disrupt the food supply chain but have not yet attributed blame. The extent of confirmation varies by location: Sweden's ICA stated that a small number of stores experienced refrigeration issues but has not confirmed a cyberattack; Finland's Kesko is still investigating. The UK's National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) has advised retailers to update their cold storage equipment temperature control software.
