Cyberattacks in Britain are causing many companies to halt operations, resulting in thousands of people becoming unemployed. This was reported by Zamin.uz. One of these is KNP Logistics, located in Northamptonshire and with a 158-year history. Due to the cyberattack, the company was unable to continue its operations, leaving 700 employees without jobs. According to experts, the attack was carried out by a hacker group called "Akira." They managed to access the internal system by using a simple and easily guessable password of one of the company employees. Then all data was encrypted, and internal programs ceased to function. The hackers demanded a large ransom for data recovery. In their messages, the hackers suggested starting constructive dialogue. However, KNP did not have the necessary funds for the ransom. As a result, the data was not recovered, and the company was declared bankrupt. This led to 700 workers becoming unemployed. In the last year, nearly 19,000 cyberattacks have been recorded in Great Britain. Typically, hackers demand an average ransom of 4-5 million pounds sterling. Research shows that one-third of British companies have been forced to pay a ransom after a cyberattack. In February, a similar attack occurred on the cryptocurrency exchange Bybit. The hackers took control of a digital wallet holding Ethereum cryptocurrency and stole funds amounting to 1.5 billion dollars. These incidents highlight significant issues in cybersecurity and urge companies to strengthen precautionary measures.

Football expert Vitaliy Dyakov shared his thoughts in an exclusive interview about the most interesting matches of the second round of the Russian Premier League. Euro-football.ru reported this. According to him, the main match of the round will take place between the teams "Krasnodar" and "Lokomotiv". "Krasnodar", which should be the champion of Russia, has a clear advantage at home. "Krasnodar" had a good start, while "Lokomotiv" won against "Sochi" with a score of 3:0, but the goals were scored in the last minutes with the help of players who came off the bench. The expert is eagerly waiting to see who the team's head coach Mikhail Galaktionov will field, as the main lineup did not perform very well. In general, it is expected that the "railway workers" will provide strong resistance to the "bulls". "Krasnodar" has strengthened with the best assistant of the French championship, Gaetan Perrin. The expert evaluates this transfer positively. He noted that "Krasnodar" has retained its leaders and is strengthening purposefully. It is rare for a European player to come to Russia, so it is important for him to adapt quickly to the team and show his level. "Lokomotiv", on the other hand, will try to collect points through discipline and good defense, which were lacking last season. They won 3:0 at home, but the game against the Russian champion will be different. "Lokomotiv" wants to look for opportunities through counterattacks and set pieces rather than playing as the first number. Additionally, the "Spartak" team may face difficulties in the match against "Baltika". "Baltika" is a solid mid-table team that poses challenges to the stronger teams in the championship. There is a possibility that "Spartak" will lose points. In the first round, "Spartak" attacked a lot, but several goals were disallowed. According to the expert, it will be more difficult for "Spartak" to show results this season compared to previous seasons, as rival teams are getting stronger. "Dinamo" lost points by losing to "Baltika". Now they need to learn from their mistakes in the match against "Rostov" and show a good result. Although "Rostov" performed well against "Zenit", they could not secure a victory. It would be incorrect to expect an easy game for "Dinamo". The reason for "Dinamo" losing points is said to be that the players have not fully understood the coach's requirements or the short preparation period. The team is expected to be strengthened. Uncertainties related to Jorge Carrascal are also considered an important factor. There could be a sensation in the match between "Rubin" and "Zenit". "Zenit" did not showcase team play in the first round, securing victory through individual skill.

Dmitriy Loskov, who serves as the chief consultant for sports issues at the "Lokomotiv" team, responded to a question about the problem of the current generation of Russian footballers being without European cups. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. In his opinion, this is indeed a significant problem. Players do not see the level of playing in European cups, and it is unclear to them what they should strive for. The level of football in European cups differs fundamentally from that of the Russian Premier League. Loskov still remembers the feelings he had when he heard the music of the UEFA Champions League and emphasizes that the level of football there is beyond words. Russian teams have been unable to participate in European cups for more than three years due to sanctions imposed by UEFA and FIFA. The head of the Russian Football Union, Aleksandr Dyukov, has expressed hope that the sanctions may be lifted by the end of 2025. This could open new opportunities for Russian football. In the current situation, the inability of players to see the level of competition on the international stage negatively affects their development. Therefore, returning to European cups is of great importance for Russian football

The London club "Chelsea" is trying to sell forward Kristoffer Nkunku. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. The team has lowered the price set for the French player. This was reported by The Athletic. According to the source, in the winter season, "Chelsea" valued Nkunku at 65 million pounds sterling. Now the club management is ready to accept offers starting from less than 43 million pounds. Previously, the head coach of the London club, Enzo Mareska, announced that he does not consider Nkunku as a key player. It is also reported that the French player is being pursued by "Bayern" and "Manchester United". According to Transfermarkt, his market value is equal to 35 million euros. This situation requires monitoring how the negotiations between the player and the club will conclude. The "Chelsea" team aims to refresh the squad and enhance financial capabilities by selling Nkunku. Additional information regarding player transfers will be announced through official sources as it becomes available.

Enok Balotelli signed a contract with Vado club, which participates in Serie D, the fourth tier of Italian football. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. This represents a decline in his status, as last season he played for Pro Palazzolo and Ospitaletto. Ospitaletto had managed to get promoted to Serie C as a result of their performance. Balotelli scored three goals in nineteen matches for this team, but he was unable to secure a contract for the next season and was forced to remain in Serie D. Ospitaletto, meanwhile, was promoted to the higher league without him. Nevertheless, the Vado club chosen by Enok also has the opportunity to advance to the next league. Last season, they finished the league without changes because they were unable to win in the final play-off. The team still has the potential to achieve better results in the future.

Belgian midfielder Alexis Saelemaekers stated that he is greatly inspired by working with the new head coach of AC Milan, Massimiliano Allegri. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. He revealed this in an interview with the Italian publication La Gazzetta Dello Sport. Saelemaekers expressed his readiness to play in any position under the new coach. He also emphasized that he is happy to return to AC Milan. "I gave my all as a professional footballer at Bologna and Roma. But AC Milan holds a special place in my heart and mind, and I have always wanted to return to this club. I belong to this club," Saelemaekers said. The new season of the Italian championship will begin in the second half of August. The current champion is Napoli. This season, teams are preparing to showcase their strengths.

The transfer of Atalanta's forward Ademola Lukman to Milan's Inter club is approaching. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. The price for the Bergamo club's player has decreased. This was reported by La Repubblica. According to sources, Atalanta is ready to sell the Nigerian player for 45 million euros. This price is 5 million euros less than the previous inquiry. This amount is considered acceptable for Inter. Additionally, the terms of cooperation between Inter and Lukman have been successfully agreed upon. Last season, the 27-year-old forward scored 20 goals and provided 7 assists in 40 matches. Lukman's contract with Atalanta still has two years remaining. According to Transfermarkt, his market value is estimated at 60 million euros. This transfer is expected to mark a new stage in the player's career. For Inter, Lukman's addition will further strengthen the team's attacking line. The player aims to achieve success in the new team with his experience and skills. Atalanta aims to gain significant revenue from this transfer. Additionally, these changes may also affect the pre-season preparation processes of the Italian football league. Lukman will strive to find his place in the new team and delight the fans with his performance. The management and coaches of Inter also have high hopes for his potential.

In order to improve the quality of services in the healthcare sector, the Republic Emergency Medical Service Center of Uzbekistan has implemented a Call-back system in all regional branches. This was reported by Zamin.uz. This innovation was introduced as a pilot project across the republic starting this year, based on the successful experience in the Samarkand region. The main goal of the Call-back system is to quickly identify complaints related to the 103 service, study the reasons for the inquiries, and address them promptly. As a result of regular monitoring of the activities of emergency medical teams through this system, the number of complaints from the public has significantly decreased. For example, in May-June of last year, there were 783 complaints to the 103 service, while during the same period in 2025, this figure decreased by 32.3 percent to 538. This positive change confirms not only the implementation of the system but also its effective operation. According to officials, the Call-back system allows for the study of citizens' unique opinions and suggestions, maintaining constant communication with them, and assessing the level of satisfaction with services. Through this, measures are being taken to improve the quality of emergency medical services, eliminate shortcomings in the system, and strengthen public trust. In conclusion, the introduction of the Call-back system in the republic has marked a new stage in enhancing quality control in emergency medical services and ensuring the interests of the public. This system is expected to be further developed in the future and widely applied in other sectors as well

As the geopolitical situation in Eastern Europe becomes more complex, the Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Oleksandr Syrskiy, has requested assistance from U.S. President Donald Trump in the form of new missiles and defense systems. This was reported by Zamin.uz. In an interview with The Washington Post, he emphasized that Ukraine currently has a significant need for modern missiles and defense tools to defend against numerous air attacks. Syrskiy noted the necessity of abandoning the policy set by the Biden administration that restricts strikes on targets within Russian territory. In his opinion, if the U.S. and European countries supply Kyiv with strategic weapons such as ATACMS, Patriot, and Taurus without restrictions, it would deal a serious blow to Russia's arms manufacturing infrastructure. The general highlighted that new missile and defense technologies would help Ukraine effectively counter Russian air attacks, reduce offensive capabilities, and strengthen the country's security. He also stated that he expects the Trump administration to adopt a clear and firm policy on this matter. According to Syrskiy, the availability of modern missiles would create a direct barrier against Russia. “I hope that due to President Trump's position, this process will be facilitated and previous difficulties will not be repeated,” said the Ukrainian commander-in-chief. In summary, Ukraine is hoping for new political and military support to enhance its defense capabilities and maintain balance in the conflict with Russia. Syrskiy's appeal is expected to remain a significant topic on the international political agenda in the coming weeks

A man in Great Britain falsified a DNA test in collaboration with a laboratory employee to deny that he was the father of his child. This was reported by Zamin.uz. He attempted to evade a child support payment of $125,000 through this method. This was reported by the Pravilamag publication. The incident began when 31-year-old Chelsea Miller was abandoned by her husband, Sheldon, after their child was born. A few days later, Sheldon denied being the father of the child and demanded a DNA test. Chelsea Miller agreed to this, as she was certain of her child's paternity. However, the test results unexpectedly showed that Sheldon was not the biological father of the child. Doubting this result, Chelsea took a DNA sample from Sheldon's mother and conducted a test. The results proved that the baby was indeed her grandchild. Further investigations revealed that Sheldon had paid the laboratory employee to falsify the DNA results. He had contacted the employee through acquaintances of his aunt to alter the DNA samples. During the court proceedings, Sheldon and the laboratory employee admitted their crimes and were found guilty of fraud, receiving several months of imprisonment. Chelsea Miller expressed her dissatisfaction with the irresponsibility and low professional ethics of the DNA laboratory staff. A similar case was recorded in the United States, where a forensic expert who had been active for 30 years falsified 654 DNA results, causing the state a loss of $11 million. These events once again highlighted the importance of the reliability of DNA testing and the responsibility of laboratory staff

Famous Russian coach Yuri Syomin recently commented on Gaetan Perren's transfer to the "Krasnodar" club. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. According to him, although the "Krasnodar" team has a good squad, they needed a technically skilled player. Perren will help the team with his numerous assists, and in attack, he will be supported by Korodoba. Syomin stated that this transfer will be an important reinforcement for "Krasnodar." The specialist also positively assessed the team's pre-season transfer policy. He emphasized that "Krasnodar" is clearly and purposefully strengthening its weak positions.

This transfer is considered an important step for the team's future successes.

According to the press service of the Tashkent city police department, individuals distributing drugs have been arrested. This was reported by Upl.uz. On July 19, 2024, an operation was conducted based on urgent information obtained by law enforcement agencies. During this operation, a citizen born in 1997 was detained in the Uchtepa district of Tashkent city. He works as a security guard at a night club in the Chilonzor district.

An official working at the United States Patent and Trademark Office was not allowed to leave China after traveling there on a personal trip. This was reported by Zamin.uz. This incident is one of the recent events where China has obstructed U.S. citizens from leaving the country for various reasons. The U.S. State Department has stated that it is closely monitoring this issue and is in negotiations with the Chinese government. The department's statement mentioned that the safety and freedom of U.S. citizens is one of the top priorities. The Chinese government sometimes imposes exit bans on individuals related to investigations or business disputes. However, international observers often assess these measures as a means of political pressure. The bans affect not only Chinese citizens but also foreigners. The increase in similar incidents prompted the U.S. government to advise its citizens to exercise caution when traveling to China in 2024. This warning was eased after three U.S. citizens were released following prolonged detention in November 2024. Additionally, representatives of the private sector have also been subjected to bans. For example, Chenyue Mao, an employee of Wells Fargo living in the U.S., was forced to remain in China. This situation led the bank to halt all business trips to China. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiaku stated that Mao is being investigated in a criminal case and that the exit ban was applied in accordance with existing laws. Officials referred to this situation as a personal legal case. No comments were made regarding the case involving the U.S. government official. Guo Jiaku only emphasized that China is ensuring the rule of law and conducting entry-exit operations based on the law

The main problem of Russian football is to maintain its level. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. According to sports commentator and TV presenter Dmitriy Guberniev, the most important task today is to preserve the players' skills, their motivation, and the national team institution. At the same time, he does not consider the issue of corruption in national football to be the main one, as active and effective measures are being taken against it. Since February 2022, Russian teams and the national team have been unable to participate in international competitions. This decision was made by the leaders of FIFA and UEFA. Thus, the biggest task for Russian football is to maintain its level to avoid disappearing from foreign competitions and to continuously improve the qualifications of the players. Maintaining motivation in football and strengthening the national team is crucial for future successes. Therefore, all opportunities must be utilized to develop football and restore its reputation.

Igor Semshov, a former player of the Russian national team, shared his thoughts on the performances of the "Spartak" team at the beginning of the season. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. In the first round, the "red and white" team defeated the "Dinamo" club from Makhachkala, Dagestan, with a minimal score thanks to a goal from Markinyos. According to Semshov, "Spartak" secured the necessary three points and undoubtedly played better than "Dinamo". However, the team needs reinforcements, as it is essential to strengthen the squad in order to compete for the championship.

On July 26, "Spartak" will play against the "Baltika" team. This match will take place at the "Lukoyl Arena" stadium and is organized as part of the second round of the season.

The head director's advisor of Moscow's "Lokomotiv" team, Dmitriy Loskov, supported former midfielder Igor Denisov. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. Denisov has always emphasized the necessity of increasing the salaries of children's coaches. According to Loskov, Denisov has always been a person with his own opinion, and such people are very rare in Russian football. He fully agrees with Denisov's opinion and spoke about how children's coaches are justifiably receiving low salaries. Denisov has mentioned several times that during his coaching of the 2011-born children's team of Moscow's "Torpedo," he helped organize training camps by spending his own money. The former player is known for defending the rights of Russian footballers during his time at St. Petersburg's "Zenit." He advocated for the interests of Russian players who earn less compared to star legionnaires. Therefore, it is expected that Denisov's focus on the issue of children's coaches' salaries and his support for them will have a positive impact on the development of football. This situation is also important for both Russian and Uzbek football. By adequately valuing the work of children's coaches, it is possible to improve the quality of future generations of athletes.
