CrowdStrike IT outage continues to cause global disruption | BBC News

Published

on



A massive tech failure that caused chaos around the world on Friday is continuing to cause disruption into the weekend.

Cyber-security firm CrowdStrike has apologised after an update to its antivirus software – which is designed to protect Microsoft Windows devices from malicious attacks – instead caused a global outage.

The outage caused thousands of flight cancellations and delays across the world, while banking, healthcare and payment systems were also affected.

But, while the software bug has been fixed, experts say the manual reboot of each affected Microsoft computer will take a huge amount of work – and may take some time.

UK had to ‘call out’ Israeli settlements in West Bank says foreign secretary | BBC News

Published

on



The UK had to “call out” Israeli settlement activity in the West Bank before it was “too late” to save the two-state solution, the foreign secretary has said.

Ed Milliband has announced the UK would ban the import of goods from Israeli settlements in the illegally occupied West Bank.

Israel has built around 160 settlements housing 700,000 people since then, despite all Israeli settlements in the West Bank being illegal under international law. Around 3.3 million Palestinians live alongside them.

Israel has responded with four “counter-measures” against the UK – including the closure of the UK consulate in Jerusalem, which is expected to shut in the next 30 days.
