Palestinian hunger striker Khader Adnan dies in Israeli prison
Khader Adnan, a Palestinian Islamic Jihad member accused by Israel of terror charges, died in an Israeli prison after an 87-day hunger strike.
Adnan's lawyer accused Israeli prison authorities of medical negligence, stating demands for his transfer to a civil hospital were rejected.
Following Adnan's death, rockets were fired from the Gaza Strip towards Israeli territory, with Palestinian Islamic Jihad vowing continued resistance.
Adnan, a prominent Islamic Jihad figure, had been detained 12 times by Israel, mostly under administrative detention, and had undertaken multiple hunger strikes.

Supermarket freezers in several European countries hit by apparent cyberattacks
Supermarkets across Sweden, Belgium, Luxembourg, Ireland, and Estonia reported widespread freezer and fridge malfunctions due to apparent cyberattacks.
The attacks caused refrigeration systems to overheat, with temperatures soaring to 50 degrees Celsius (122 F), forcing stores to discard spoiled food and limit fresh/frozen product availability.
Major chains like ICA Group, Coop, Delhaize, Carrefour, and SuperValu confirmed impacts, with some incidents quickly resolved, while others experienced temporary disruptions.
These incidents follow a similar pattern to a cyberattack last month in France that targeted older refrigeration systems in hundreds of stores, suggesting a coordinated effort.
