French blood banks hacked in latest cyber-attack on Europe

France's national blood service reported a cyber-attack that compromised temperature controls at blood product storage facilities. The hackers raised temperature levels, but technicians intervened before any products were damaged. This incident is part of a broader trend of cyber-attacks affecting refrigeration systems across Europe, impacting supermarkets and other facilities. Authorities in multiple countries are discussing collective responses to these incidents, which may be linked to state-sponsored actions following geopolitical tensions. The blood service clarified that it was not directly targeted, as the attack affected contractor-operated cold stores.
