India -ALSHARQIYA  April 14: Tropical Race 4 threatens banana cultivation in the world due to the highly contagious soil fungi that it spreads.
According to "TV Zvezda", a disease called "Tropical Race 4" began to spread actively in Asia and Australia in the twentieth century. And in 2019, it was detected for the first time in shipments of bananas in South America. Some farms have already been closed in Colombia and Honduras.
This disease is in no way susceptible to the influence of chemicals, so the polluted soil will be withdrawn over a period of at least 30 to 40 years.
The new disease mostly affects the "Cavendish" variety, which makes up 95% of the global banana trade, according to "Sputnik".
Experts stress that even a small portion of contaminated soil on a farmer's sole can spread infection. The disease is also transmitted rapidly between plants with the same genes.

Male banana palm flowers are sterile, while female flowers produce fruit without pollination. Experts note that Cavendish reproduces asexually through branches.
According to scientists, there is no such type of banana as fruiting in nature as the Cavendish variety.
Moreover, in many countries of Asia, Africa and America, this fruit is a very important product in the daily diet, and is on par with potatoes and rice.
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations drew attention to the fact that, taking into account the world population, the increase in the food needs of the growing population in developing countries is the main reason for the increase in banana production.

United States-ALSHARQIYA   April 14: WhatsApp users are warned about a security issue that allows attackers to close your account by deactivating the world's most popular chat application.
The new fraud was first highlighted by a security expert who wrote in Forbes magazine. Security researchers Luis Marquez Carpintero and Ernesto Canales Berina warned that anyone could be banned from their account within 36 hours.
The attack can be carried out as anyone can actually install WhatsApp on their device and enter another person's mobile phone during the initial account creation process. And if someone does, you will receive texts and calls from WhatsApp that give you an important six-digit code, required to complete the setup process.

And unless a hacker can persuade you to send this code, the likelihood that they will be able to guess is almost impossible. So what will happen is that the attacker will try to enter through this important code, and continue to fail.
The problem is that after a number of failed attempts, WhatsApp will pause when generating these codes.
And the chat app will notify someone who tries - and fails - to set up WhatsApp, that he has to "re-send SMS / call me within 12 hours".
After this 12-hour period expires, the attacker needs to follow the same method as before, twice to ensure that WhatsApp prohibits creating new setting codes. During the second 12-hour period, while no new setup codes are generated, an attacker can create a fake email address and contact WhatsApp support.
