Urine Bomb Attack on Polling Station Fails to Disrupt Voting
Before the polling station in Tin Ping Estate, Sheung Shui opened at noon, on the first day of the primary election on July 11 someone dropped a “urine bomb” from above, nearly hitting the tens of citizens waiting in line to vote.
Witness Kwok Long Fung, a district councilor, pointed out to journalists that the area was not a blackspot of incidents with objects being thrown from above, suspecting the incident was intentionally targeting the primary elections. He added that no one was splashed by the urine. The incident didn’t affect voters either. Long queues even appeared outside the polling station that afternoon.

Norway says cyber attack on parliament carried out from China
Norway said on Monday that a March 10 cyber attack on parliament's e-mail system was carried out from China, calling on authorities there to take steps to prevent such activities.
"The cyber attack in March compromised the e-mail systems of our most important democratic institution. We will always react to these types of intrusions," Foreign Minister Ine Eriksen Soereide said in a statement emailed to Reuters.
An investigation by the country’s intelligence services had revealed the attack came from "actors operating out of China", the ministry said. "Several of our allies, the EU, and Microsoft have also confirmed this."
