Stop & Shop cyber incident leaves some shelves empty ahead of Thanksgiving

Just one week before Thanksgiving, a cybersecurity problem has kept the shelves of some Stop & Shop and Hannaford grocery stores in the Northeast empty for almost two weeks. Ahold Delhaize, a Dutch grocery store parent company, announced in a statement on November 8 that it was facing a cybersecurity problem in its U.S. network, causing inventory shortages at hundreds of locations. Christy Phillips-Brown, a spokesman for Ahold Delhaize, stated in a statement that the inquiry is still ongoing. According to the statement, our teams are working to identify and address the problem. To help protect them, some systems may need to be taken offline. Several Ahold Delhaize USA businesses and services, including several pharmacies and certain e-commerce activities, have been impacted by this pr...

ICC issues arrest warrants for Israeli PM Netanyahu and ex-defense minister Gallant for alleged war crimes in Gaza

On Thursday, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Hamas military chief Mohammed Deif, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity. The Israeli military's year-long attack on the Palestinian enclave has killed 44,000 people, according to local health experts, and the ICC charged Netanyahu and Gallant of a series of human rights violations in the Gaza Strip. The warrants sparked a fierce response from Israel, with Netanyahu's office denouncing the ICC as a "biased and discriminatory political body," calling the decision "antisemitic," and dismissing the claims as "absurd and false." The court's ruling "remains limited and symbolic if it is not supported by all countries around ...

Icelandic volcano erupts for seventh time in a year

The Icelandic capital, Avolcanonear, erupted late on Wednesday for the eighth time in a year, releasing smoke and lava fountains, according to the country's meteorological service. However, neither infrastructure nor air traffic were affected. At 11:14 p.m. local time on Wednesday, the eruption began without much notice and formed a fissure that was just under two miles long. According to Iceland's meteorological service, which keeps an eye on seismic activity, the activity is expected to be significantly less than the previous eruption in August. Luminous hot lava with vivid yellow and orange hues was seen shooting up into the night sky in social media livestreams from the region. Just forty-five minutes before a huge ground crack was created by magma pushing through the earth's crust, th...

ICC issues arrest warrants for Israeli PM Netanyahu and ex-defense minister Gallant for alleged war crimes in Gaza

On Thursday, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Hamas military chief Mohammed Deif, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity. The international court announced that it had issued warrants for both Netanyahu and Gallant, who were sacked by the Israeli prime minister last month for the country's attack on the Gaza Strip, after rejecting Israel's claims to its authority. The president of Israel reacted angrily, calling it "a dark day for humanity" and a "outrageous decision." The warrants, according to a top Hamas leader, demonstrated that "international justice is with us." The announcement was made as local officials said that 44,000 people had died in the Palestinian enc...

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, and Hamas military director Mohammed Deif were all given arrest warrants by the International Criminal Court on Thursday for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity. Announcing that it has issued warrants for both Netanyahu and Gallant, whom the Israeli prime minister sacked last month, in connection with the nation's attack on the Gaza Strip, the Pre-Trial Chamber of the international court dismissed Israel's claims to its jurisdiction. This happened as local officials said that 44,000 people had died in the Palestinian enclave, including thousands of children. Israel began its lethal offensive after the terror attacks on October 7, which were led by Hamas and resulted in a significant escalation in th...

A Siberian tiger bit a man in China and remains on the loose, authorities say

Hong Kong In northern China, authorities are looking for a wild tiger that mauled two men and required surgery on one of them.

Alabama prepares for its third nitrogen gas execution

Thursday will mark the third nitrogen hypoxia execution in Alabama this year for a prisoner convicted of a 1994 murder. Concerns regarding the potential for protracted suffering and whether there is an unlawful danger of more pain are still raised by the new execution technique, which entails breathing only nitrogen gas through a mask while being deprived of oxygen. However, a federal appeals court last week dismissed the convicted man's attorneys' claims, allowing 50-year-old Carey Dale Grayson to be executed. For the kidnapping and murder of hitchhiker Vickie Deblieux when he was 19 and his three co-defendants were under 18, Grayson is scheduled to die at the state prison in Atmore. After the U.S. Supreme Court declared that the death penalty for his co-defendants was unconstitutional, t...

Mehmet Oz once proposed massive changes to Medicare. Now he could run it.

Washington Incoming Senate Finance Committee Chair Mike Crapo, R-Idaho, immediately hailed the TV-famous doctor when President-elect Donald Trump appointed Dr. Mehmet Oz to a significant executive branch position managing Medicare and stated that he looked forward to reviewing his upcoming nomination. According to Crapo, individuals who depend on federal government health care programs are far too frequently compelled to accept one-size-fits-all, bureaucratic coverage. Dr. Oz has been a supporter of giving patients the knowledge they need to make their own healthcare decisions. It turns out that only four years ago, Oz, Trump's choice to lead the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, supported a health care plan that was essentially one-size-fits-all. In June 2020, Oz and former K...

Archegos’ Bill Hwang sentenced to 18 years in prison for massive U.S. fraud

In connection with the collapse of Archegos Capital Management, which cost Wall Street banks over $10 billion, former billionaire investor Sung Kook Bill Hwang was sentenced to 18 years in prison on Wednesday. U.S. District Judge Alvin Hellerstein sentenced Hwang in Manhattan after a jury found him guilty in July of ten federal offenses, including market manipulation, securities fraud, and wire fraud. Before announcing the punishment, Hellerstein stated, "The amount of losses that were caused by your conduct are larger than any other losses I have dealt with." Wall Street and Hwang's lenders were shocked by Archego's March 2021 catastrophe, which happened in less than a week. The Manhattan U.S. Attorney's office requested that Hwang forfeit $12.35 billion and compensate the victims in addi...
