Confirmée The hacking of supermarket fridges and freezers has affected more than 100 stores across Europe, according to AFP's count at the time of reporting.
IA Trending Topics attributes to AFP a count of 150 to 200 affected Intermarché stores, and Fortune reports 150 Intermarché, 80 Carrefour and about two dozen Monoprix stores in France plus similar outages across Europe, which together exceed 100 stores. The results do not give a single AFP total for Europe, and the Intermarché figure is for one chain, so the exact combined AFP tally could not be checked. The Trending Topics and Fortune figures are not independent of the French reporting, so they may trace back to the same underlying sources.

Confirmée Supermarkets and retailers in Belgium, Luxembourg, Sweden, Ireland and Estonia had to throw away large quantities of spoiled food after the fridge attacks.
IA The AP report (via 1news) states that supermarkets in Sweden, Belgium, Luxembourg, Ireland and Estonia were hit by freezer and fridge problems apparently caused by cyberattacks, forcing some to dispose of ruined food. A Reuters report independently says the attack forced stores to throw away food, from Sweden to Belgium. The results do not quantify the amount discarded, so the 'large quantities' wording could not be checked precisely, and the Estonia detail rests only on the AP report.

Confirmée Dutch supermarket operator Ahold Delhaize said an overnight "IT incident" affected fridges and freezers at dozens of Delhaize stores in Belgium and Luxembourg.
IA Multiple results report that Delhaize, owned by Ahold Delhaize, described an overnight "IT incident" that affected refrigeration in several dozen stores, mostly in Belgium with a few in Luxembourg. The Bloomberg result, which says the company confirmed about 40 Belgian stores, is consistent with the claim's core. The results attribute the statement to the Delhaize subsidiary rather than the parent company by name, but this is a minor distinction, and the wording matches.

Confirmée Delhaize detected a temperature rise in its cooling systems on Monday and was investigating the incident.
IA Several results report that Delhaize (Ahold Delhaize) spokesperson Sarah De Meester said the chain detected temperature increases in its cooling systems on Monday and is investigating. Most of these results appear to repeat the same spokesperson statement, likely from a single original report, so they are not fully independent sources.

Confirmée Ahold reported a cybersecurity incident to Dutch police last month after detecting suspicious activity in its infrastructure.
IA Reuters reports that Ahold Delhaize reported a cybersecurity incident to Dutch police in October after detecting suspicious activity in its IT infrastructure, and CBS News repeats this, citing Reuters. The newsroom update says it notified the Dutch NCSC within 24 hours, which does not contradict the police report. The results disagree on the exact Monday date (Oct 12 in Progressive Grocer, Oct 19 in Reuters), but both fall in October, so the core claim holds.

Confirmée A French retailer said about 15 of its 700 Belgian locations were affected by refrigeration problems.
IA Several results report that Carrefour, the French retailer, said about 15 of its more than 700 Belgian stores were affected by refrigeration disruption from a cyberattack. The statement came from Carrefour Belgium, the Belgian arm, which the results do not explicitly describe as French, but the core figures match. Results 2, 4 and 5 appear to repeat the same AFP-style report, so they are not independent confirmations.

Confirmée A franchise operator of Spar stores in Belgium said five of its shops had their fridge systems attacked.
IA Several results state that a Colruyt Group spokesperson said five Spar shops in Belgium, which Colruyt operates under a franchise system, had their fridge systems attacked, matching the claim's core. These results appear to repeat the same spokesperson statement, so they are not independent sources, and none of them is a primary document.

Confirmée Swedish Coop said cooling systems at seven of its 800 stores were affected, with disruptions ranging from complete shutdowns to partial operation.
IA Several results report that Coop said seven of its more than 800 stores were affected by tampering with cooling systems. The Fast Company result specifically describes the disruptions as ranging from complete refrigerator and freezer shutdowns to partially functioning equipment. The 'seven of 800' figure appears in several outlets that appear to draw on Coop's own statements, so it is not fully independent confirmation.
