Cyber-attack on store refrigeration forces European supermarkets to discard large food stocks

Dozens of supermarkets across seven European countries were forced to throw out large amounts of food. The discarding followed a cyber-attack that targeted their refrigerators and freezers. Because the cooling systems were compromised, the stock could no longer be considered safe to sell. Local reports described piles of rubbish left behind as a result of the incident. The source article does not provide further details beyond these points.
