🔹 French defense giant Naval Group—builder of France’s nuclear subs—confirms it’s urgently investigating after a hacker known as “Neferpitou” posted evidence, including 30GB of data, to an underground forum and claimed to possess up to 1TB of sensitive material.
🔹 The leaked files reportedly contain weapon system software, network blueprints, and user manuals for submarine and frigate combat management systems.
🔹 Naval Group says no intrusion into its IT systems has been detected so far, but the authenticity of the leaked material is still under investigation. French authorities are involved, and an official probe is ongoing.
🔹 Experts warn the alleged breach is a serious national security risk for France and its partners, as Naval Group supplies submarines and defense systems worldwide.

Meanwhile: After France announced it will recognize Palestine as a state at the UN in September, Israel has responded forcefully and bilateral tensions have escalated.
•Israeli leaders condemned France’s move, labeling it a “reward for terror” and threatening diplomatic retaliation.
•Israel’s media and officials stress their global reach and deep-rooted alliances, warning that Paris’s recognition could trigger hardball tactics—in intelligence, trade, and international lobbying—reflecting the country’s longstanding influence in global affairs.
•France’s decision marks a turning point, as it will be the first G7 and UN Security Council permanent member to recognize Palestinian statehood, deepening divisions within Western alliances and potentially exposing France to a wider diplomatic backlash from Israel and its allies
