Latvia: Fake Euronews video invents deadly shooting during NATO exercise

Euronews Portugal7 September 2026 at 09:03

A fabricated report used the visual identity of Euronews to falsely claim that a Ukrainian soldier killed three NATO soldiers during an exercise in Latvia. The fake video was identified as disinformation and does not correspond to any real event.

The invented report circulated online with the aim of spreading false news about NATO military operations in the Baltic region. Euronews clarified that the content was false and that it did not produce this report.

This incident is part of a broader context of disinformation campaigns that have targeted news organizations and Western military institutions. Authorities have warned about the increasing attempts to manipulate public opinion through fabricated videos and reports.

Tech giants pledge to reduce water usage in AI data centers

Public opposition to water-intensive data centers is growing in the United States, especially those associated with artificial intelligence. These technological infrastructures require large amounts of water for cooling, which has generated environmental concerns and opposition from local communities. The major tech companies ensure that they are developing and implementing new cooling systems that can significantly reduce water demand in their data centers. These new technologies promise to be more efficient in water resource usage. However, experts warn that there is a trade-off: using less water may imply a significant increase in electricity consumption. This situation creates a dilemma for companies, which need to balance two distinct resources, both with considerable environmental impact. The debate illustrates the growing challenge that the technology industry faces in making artificial intelligence infrastructure more sustainable, at a time when demand for AI services continues to increase rapidly worldwide.
