Supermarkets in Sweden, Belgium, Luxembourg and Estonia were hit Monday by problems with freezers and fridges that apparently were caused by cyberattacks, forcing some to dispose of ruined food, per LinkedIn.

Reuters reports that a sweeping cyberattack has affected supermarket fridges across Europe, with the incidents stretching from Ireland to Sweden, highlighting growing cybersecurity vulnerabilities in retail infrastructure.

The attacks occurred amid heightened concerns about digital threats targeting critical infrastructure, as Bloomberg notes that such disruptions could cascade into broader economic impacts and supply chain issues across the continent.
