Hacked fridges, a Starlink fire and more drones at sea

Three stories, three angles: what happened, how it's being told, and what we don't know yet.

Hackers switch the fridges of some 700 French supermarkets to defrost overnight, and nobody has claimed the attack. In Germany, police arrest two Turkish men over a fire at a Starlink ground station near Warsaw that Poland calls Russian sabotage. And in the Black Sea, drones hit two more ships off Bulgaria: one sinks, and eleven of its sailors are missing.

After each story, we ask what you think. Tell us in the comments or on Pollar's socials.
