Poland has launched a special security operation near Russia’s Kaliningrad exclave following intelligence warnings of potential sabotage and incursions by armed groups. Polish Police Chief Marek Boroń confirmed that a special command headquarters has been established to coordinate military, police, border guard, intelligence and counterterrorism operations across Warmian-Masurian and Podlaskie. ⚠️ The warnings reportedly came from Polish military intelligence and allied intelligence services, prompting reinforcements and heightened security around critical infrastructure. The operation is preventive, with no confirmed incursion or attack. NATO’s eastern flank faces renewed security concerns.

UPDATE: Since our last update, two more countries have reported disruptions to supermarket refrigeration systems, bringing the total to seven countries affected across Europe. 🇸🇪 Sweden and 🇧🇪 Belgium appear to be among the hardest-hit countries, with multiple supermarket chains and stores experiencing significant disruptions and food losses. 🇱🇺 Luxembourg has also reported incidents affecting Delhaize stores. 🇮🇪 Ireland has seen refrigeration disruptions at 13 SuperValu stores, forcing chilled and frozen products to be removed. 🇳🇱 The Netherlands has reported incidents at at least 17 businesses, primarily smaller retailers, butcher shops and food-storage facilities. 🇪🇪 Estonia reported a cyberattack targeting refrigeration controls, with freezer temperatures reportedly reaching +50°C. The incident was detected and addressed within approximately 10 minutes, preventing major damage. 🇫🇮 Finland has reported only minor, limited-scale temperature irregularities in some K Group stores. The situation there appears significantly less severe than in other affected countries.

Flera allvarliga olyckor med spanska höghastighetståg på senare år väcker frågor. I Japan Kina o Taiwan finns massor av sådana tåg. Men man hör sällan något om allvarliga olyckor. Den enda kända olyckan med höghastighetståg var i Kina 2011. Varför fungerar det sämre i Spanien?

Cinq ans plus tard, la facture dérape et Berne découvre que le prix prétendument garanti ne l'était pas vraiment ! Résultat : malgré une enveloppe supplémentaire de 394 millions de francs suisses, le pays ne pourrait finalement acheter que 30 appareils au lieu des 36 prévus. Le gouvernement suisse vient officiellement de reconnaître les défaillances dans la gestion de ce contrat. Un aveu plutôt rare pour une acquisition militaire de plusieurs milliards d'euros. Six avions perdus, des centaines de millions supplémentaires à payer et une question qui dérange : comment un pays réputé pour sa rigueur a-t-il pu se retrouver dans une telle situation ? Dans notre article, on revient sur les erreurs commises lors des négociations, le bras de fer avec Washington et les conséquences de cette affaire pour l'armée de l'air suisse. Avec, forcément, un petit regard du côté du Rafale français… Notre article complet : 👉 forum-militaire.fr/la-suisse… #F35 #Suisse #Rafale #LockheedMartin #Défense

站在今天看，俄罗斯这波操作，属于手握着一把天胡的牌打得稀烂。 如果不出兵乌克兰，今天全球AI的牌桌上，除了中美，大概率真得坐着一个俄罗斯。 搞AI、跑大模型，底层逻辑就是“吃电、散热、堆机器”。这两年全世界的数据中心老板都在为电费和机房降温发愁。俄罗斯属于老天爷喂到饭：西伯利亚开窗就是纯天然顶级空调；境内水电、核电、天然气很便宜，当年挖矿的都选西伯利亚。 另外俄罗斯人的数学和算法也强，各大国际编程竞赛，Kaggle机器学习竞赛常被俄国人屠榜。全世界除了中美，俄罗斯也搞出了自己完整的互联网生态：搜东西有Yandex，社交有VK，还有Telegram。现在在美股被炒上天的算力黑马Nebius，核心班底就是原先Yandex那帮俄罗斯人。 如果疫情后俄罗斯出地皮、出冷气、出便宜电，再拉着中国这种基建狂魔帮忙拉高压电网、建厂房、铺光纤，欧美资本开服务器工厂。俄国人完全可以成为欧亚大陆最大的“超级算力工厂”，中美神仙打架，它在中间两头收过路费。 结果呢？普京一拍大腿：不行，我得去抢那几块地。 普京的脑子，彻底停留在了19世纪沙皇俄国那种“开疆拓土”的旧梦里。什么有没有出海口啊，有没有所谓的军事缓冲带啊，就算抢方法也多的是，这可这是21世纪啊！现在的世界霸权争夺，抢的是半导体供应链，抢的是先进算法，抢的是高精尖人才。你去顿巴斯抢了几片烂泥地、几座废弃钢铁厂，代价却是把整个国家的未来都押了上去。 枪声一响，一切全崩了。稍微有点本事的程序员、算法工程师，连夜跑路。Yandex核心技术团队，宁可巨亏，惨烈的断尾求生、割裂母国，也要跑到欧洲重组成Nebius。普京把最懂未来的人，全逼成了难民和海外创业者。 在人工智能技术爆发的黎明前夜，全世界都在疯狂狂飙算力、抢占新工业革命的门票；而俄罗斯的老大，却带着几十万人，在泥潭里打着一百年前的一战式堑壕战。 再说一遍，普京不行，国内崇拜普京的那帮人也不行
