The USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) informs: Kraft Heinz Foods Company, a Newberry, SC, establishment, is recalling approximately 367,812 pounds of fully cooked turkey bacon products that may be adulterated with Listeria monocytogenes (Lm). The turkey bacon was produced from 24 Apr through 11 Jun 2025. Listeriosis can cause fever, muscle aches, headache, stiff neck, confusion, loss of balance, and convulsions sometimes preceded by diarrhea or other gastrointestinal symptoms. An invasive infection spreads beyond the gastrointestinal tract. In pregnant women, the infection can cause miscarriages, stillbirths, premature delivery or life-threatening infection of the newborn. In addition, serious and sometimes fatal infections occur in older adults and persons with weakened immune systems. Listeriosis is treated with antibiotics. Read more
The Israeli military used a 500lb (230kg) bomb, a powerful and indiscriminate weapon that generates a massive blast wave and scatters shrapnel over a wide area, when it attacked a target in a crowded beachfront cafe in Gaza on Monday. Between 24 and 36 Palestinians were killed in the attack on the cafe and dozens more were injured. The dead included a well-known film-maker and an artist. Experts in international law said the use of such a munition despite the known presence of many unprotected civilians, including children, women and elderly people, was almost certainly unlawful and may constitute a war crime. Fragments of the weapon from the ruins of al-Baqa cafe have been identified by ordnance experts as parts of an MK-82 general purpose 230kg bomb, a powerful US-made bomb. An IDF spokesperson said the attack on the cafe was under review and that "prior to the strike, steps were taken to mitigate the risk of harming civilians using aerial surveillance." Read more

Police in Westbrook Maine have apologized after being caught lying to the public after posting an AI-generated photo on social media of purported evidence seized during a drug bust. Members of the public quickly began questioning the obviously manipulated photo shortly after it was posted. That prompted the department to reply that "We want to set the record straight " this is NOT an AI-generated photo." A few days later the post was removed and replaced with a public apology acknowledging that the department had attempted to use an AI-powered photo editor to add their logo to an image taken from a drug bust and failed to realize that the app had made other significant changes to the image.
