Plans by Police Scotland to introduce live surveillance cameras for scanning faces have been criticized as “deeply intrusive” and dangerous by a coalition of international privacy groups.

The cameras are intended to help catch shoplifters and people violating bail conditions, with images monitored from police vans and checked against a database.

Privacy advocates, including Big Brother Watch, Liberty, Privacy International, and others, have urged Justice Secretary Angela Constance to withdraw the proposal, the Daily Mail has reported.

According to Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Jarida, Iran has provided Hezbollah and other proxies with electromagnetic ordnance capable of disabling communication systems and shutting down radars.

Rotem Mey-Tal, CEO of Asgard Systems, likened this technology to an extreme power outage that affects all electrical and electronic systems, including critical medical equipment.

Mey-Tal speculated that the technology might be used in low-flying UAVs, similar to recent attacks by Iranian-backed forces, but noted that there is no historical precedent or detailed documentation for such weapons, the Jerusalem Post has reported.

David Dutch and James Copenhaver, the two men injured in the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, were both discharged from the hospital recently.

Dutch, 57, was released from Allegheny General Hospital on July 24, while Copenhaver, 74, was discharged on July 26.

Copenhaver, who suffered critical injuries at Trump’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, is reported to be recovering from “life-altering” wounds. His family expressed gratitude for the support received during his recovery.
