 Ukrainian radio stations were hacked and broadcasted fake news about the health of Volodymyr Zelenskyy. The fake news stated that Zelensky was in intensive care and in critical condition. More: - The primary victim was radio station TAVR Media, which serves as a network with nine other radio channels under it.
- To dispute the claim, Zelensky posted a video where he seems to be in good health, blaming Russian hackers for breaching the stations and causing panic among Ukrainians.
- So far, it is not known how the hackers managed to breach the radio network, but the attack is a continued pattern of breaching key Ukrainian organizations by the Russian government and its state-backed hackers.

 U.K. cybersecurity leaders have stated that they are in favor of scanning children's phone screens. The process has raised privacy concerns, as similar initiatives have failed in the past. More: - The two individuals responsible for carrying this process through, National Cybersecurity Centre technical director Ian Levy and Crispin Robinson of the Government Communications Headquarters, favor scanning children's screens. They claim that this procedure would be beneficial for their safety.
- While this research paper does not mean that it will be implemented as a policy by the government, it is a sign that the cybersecurity community is taking note of the geopolitical changes that are happening, which have resulted in governments treating cybersecurity as a priority.
- Companies such as Apple recently proposed similar features but faced criticism from privacy advocates who claim there needs to be a line between companies and the amount of private data they collect.
