Macron to host G7 leaders call on Iran crisis, energy prices

PARIS, March 10 (Reuters) - French President Emmanuel Macron will convene a call with leaders of ‌the Group of Seven on Wednesday to ‌discuss the Iran crisis and rising energy prices, the French ​president's office said.

The talks come as G7 governments weigh how to respond to a sharp rise in oil prices triggered by the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran.

G7 ‌energy ministers stopped ⁠short of agreeing on a release of strategic oil reserves on Tuesday and ⁠instead asked the International Energy Agency to assess the situation before acting.

Benchmark oil prices surged to almost ​four-year highs ​on Monday but prices ​plummeted 11% on Tuesday ‌after U.S. President Donald Trump predicted the war in the Middle East could end soon.

U.S. officials are also weighing steps to keep oil flowing through the Strait of Hormuz, including providing naval escorts ‌for commercial vessels and backstopping ​war risk insurance for tankers, ​as Washington seeks ​to reassure shippers and prevent further ‌disruption to global energy supplies.

The ​G7 comprises ​the United States, Canada, Japan, Italy, Britain, Germany and France.

March 10 (Reuters) - The International Energy Agency has ‌proposed the largest ‌release of oil reserves in ​its history to bring down crude prices that have soared due ‌to the ⁠U.S.-Israel war with Iran, the Wall ⁠Street Journal reported on Tuesday, citing officials ​familiar with ​the ​matter.

Reuters

The release would ‌exceed the 182 million barrels of oil that IEA member countries put onto the market ‌in two releases ​in 2022 ​when ​Russia launched its ‌full-scale invasion of ​Ukraine, ​WSJ added.

Reuters could not immediately verify the report.

Your Hairdresser Might Save The Planet: Here's How Salons Are Tackling Climate Change One Cut At A Time

Your Hairdresser Might Save The Planet: Here's How Salons Are Tackling Climate Change One Cut At A Time

Climate change is a much-needed conversation that a lot of people are now having — not just in school or during a policy meeting, but in the unlikeliest of places, like your barber's or hairdresser's chair.

The Weather Channel

I remember during my teenage years how important the barbershop was to me and how excited I would be to go. Not just because I'd be looking super fresh and clean after my cut, but because of the conversations I would have in there or the people I would meet.

I didn't mind waiting an extra hour for my haircut because I knew I'd be engrossed in deep conversations about sports or music, or even a vent session about my parents.

The barbershop became more than a place of upkeep to me; it became a sanctuary, a place where conversation, community and trust all lived under the same roof.

New research out of the U.K. is now proving this to be true, especially when it comes to climate change.The study, published in Humanities & Social Sciences Communications, reveals that hair salons or barbershops are the perfect hubs where climate conversations and action can take root and spread.

But why? Because your hairdresser or barber has something most people don't: your trust.

Sitting in someone's chair is almost the equivalent of trusting someone with your life (well, for the next two weeks). The person cutting your hair will determine your outward appearance for who knows how long, anywhere from weeks to even months, depending on the person.

You have no other choice but to trust this person, which is why most people stay with the same hairdresser or barber for years, if not decades.

Dr. Briony Latter, a researcher at Cardiff University, put it perfectly:

"We're used to thinking of people in the public eye, such as celebrities, as influencers. But what about the people you actually talk to on a regular basis who know you and who you trust with your appearance and sometimes more personal aspects of your life?"

You trust your hairdresser with your hair, and you trust their product recommendations and beauty tips because that relationship has built-in credibility already.

Imagine if these hairdressers or barbers started having conversations more consistently about climate change and sustainability. Would their clients listen? Researchers put it to the test and the results were outstanding.

Researchers placed simple eco-tips on salon mirrors across the U.K., and 73% of clients said they would be down to change their hair care habits. Some said they would switch to eco-friendly products, and others said they would follow the tips given, like one about shampooing less.

The conversation around climate change and sustainability doesn't always need to be protested or forced upon someone. Sometimes it just needs a mirror, a chair and someone you trust enough to listen to.

There are over 61,000 hair and beauty businesses in the U.K., and the U.S. has well over 1 million. Imagine the environmental change that could happen if even a small percentage of these shops became safe havens for conversations about sustainability.

So next time you're in the chair? Don't be too surprised if the best advice you get might not be about your hair.

Exclusive-Foreign hacker in 2023 compromised Epstein files held by FBI, source and documents show

Exclusive-Foreign hacker in 2023 compromised Epstein files held by FBI, source and documents show

FILE PHOTO: New Epstein images released by U.S. Justice Department

WASHINGTON, March 11 (Reuters) - A foreign hacker compromised files relating to the FBI's investigation of the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein during a break-in at the bureau's New York Field Office three years ago, according to a source familiar with the matter and recently published Justice Department documents reviewed by Reuters.

The details of who ‌accessed a server at the FBI's New York Field Office, including the allegation that a foreign hacker was involved, are being reported here for the first time.

In a statement, ‌the FBI said what it described as a "cyber incident" was "an isolated one."

"The FBI restricted access to the malicious actor and rectified the network. The investigation remains ongoing, so we do not have further comments to provide at this time."

Although the source ​said the intrusion appeared to have been carried out by a cybercriminal rather than a foreign government, the incident underscores the files' potential intelligence value, one academic said. The legally mandated publication of U.S. Justice Department documents has exposed the dead financier's ties to prominent people in politics, finance, academia and business, triggering investigations in numerous countries around the world.

"Who wouldn't be going after the Epstein files if you're the Russians or somebody interested in kompromat?" said Jon Lindsay, who researches the role of emerging technology in global security at the Georgia Institute of Technology. "If foreign intelligence agencies are not thinking seriously about the Epstein files as ‌a target, then I would be shocked."

The breach was reported contemporaneously ⁠by CNN and Reuters on February 17; the connection to Epstein materials was made by the French magazine Marianne.

Epstein, a longtime associate of President Donald Trump, pleaded guilty in 2008 to prostitution charges, including soliciting an underage girl. He was found hanged in his jail cell in 2019, in what was ruled ⁠a suicide, after being arrested again on federal charges of sex trafficking of minors.

FEBRUARY 2023 BREAK-IN

The hack occurred after a server at the Child Exploitation Forensic Lab in the FBI's New York Field Office was inadvertently left vulnerable by Special Agent Aaron Spivack, who was trying to navigate the bureau's complex procedures for handling digital evidence, according to the source and the documents.

A timeline written by Spivack and included in the large cache of Epstein ​documents ​released earlier this year said the break-in happened on February 12, 2023. It was discovered the following day ​when Spivack turned on his computer and discovered a text file warning him ‌that his network had been compromised, according to that document.

Further investigation turned up traces of unusual activity on the server, the document said, adding that the activity "included combing through certain files pertaining to the Epstein investigation."

The timeline does not say which specific files were accessed, whether the hacker downloaded the data, or who the hacker was. Reuters could not establish what, if any, overlap the affected data had with the Epstein documents published earlier this year or the files that remain under wraps.

Spivack, whose name appears elsewhere in the documents in connection with the Epstein investigation, did not return repeated messages seeking comment. Reuters was unable to reach the man identified in the documents as Spivack's lawyer, Richard J. Roberson, Jr. Seven FBI agents identified in the documents as being involved in the investigation into the ‌incident did not return messages.

HACKER, FBI CHATTED BY VIDEO

In his statement to FBI investigators examining whether he was ​responsible for the breach, Spivack said he was being made "a scapegoat for the intrusion" and that conflicting bureau policies and faulty ​guidance around information technology were to blame. Reuters could not establish the result of the ​bureau's internal investigation.

The person familiar with the breach said the intrusion was carried out by a foreign hacker who did not appear to realize they had penetrated ‌a law enforcement server. The hacker expressed disgust at the presence of ​child abuse images on the device and left a ​message threatening to turn its owner over to the FBI, the person said.

The source said bureau officials defused the situation by convincing the hacker that they actually were the FBI, in part by having the hacker join a video chat where they flashed their law enforcement credentials in front of a web camera.

Reuters could not determine - and the source said they ​did not know - who the hacker was, what country they were operating ‌from, what they did with the material accessed, or whether any effort was made to identify or punish them for breaking into the FBI's server.

Many of the Justice ​Department's documents have been heavily redacted and others have been kept secret altogether despite a law mandating their full release last year. The Trump administration says it is withholding ​material that could compromise victims' identities or jeopardize ongoing investigations.
