    LONDON/NAIROBI, June 15 (Reuters) - The United ​States is spending almost $25,000 every month to store contraceptives in Belgium that were originally bought for ‌use in poorer nations but are now mainly unusable, according to a report from officials reviewed by Reuters.
    Around $9.7 million worth of contraceptives, including implants and pills, have been stuck in a Belgian warehouse since January last year, when the U.S. first froze foreign aid. The stock could ​have helped prevent millions of unwanted pregnancies and saved lives, aid sources have said.

    Between January 2025 and March ​of this year, storing and transporting the stock has cost $360,667

    AI strikes again

    “It was pretty cool to see a ticket that’s $4,000, and I could just hit a button and issue as many as I wanted,” says Carroll, who runs the startup Seats.aero but also does independent security research. “I could go to every single event with no limitations or restrictions: I could get the backstage pass or whatever they sell to the super VIPs—even if it’s sold out.”
