Amazon S3 Marks 20th Anniversary Storing Over 500 Trillion Objects

Amazon cloud storage service S3, launched on March 14, 2006, reached its 20th anniversary in 2026 already storing over 500 trillion data objects.

On March 30, 2026, the US Federal Bureau of Investigation announced that an attack at a synagogue in West Bloomfield, Michigan on March 12 was a terrorist attack motivated by Hezbollah ideology.

The attacker Ayman Ghazali was a naturalized US citizen from Lebanon. He drove a pickup truck into the synagogue where over a hundred children were present at the time. Security personnel immediately exchanged fire with Ghazali, who ultimately shot himself in the vehicle. Besides the attacker, no other personnel died.

Investigators discovered that Ghazali's two brothers died in an Israeli airstrike one week before the attack. One of them was a Hezbollah weapons transportation department commander. Ten minutes before the attack, Ghazali sent a video to his younger sister, claiming to be at the largest Israeli gathering place in Michigan.

The FBI stated that this attack specifically targeted the local Jewish community and Michigan's largest synagogue. The case has sparked widespread attention and discussion in the United States regarding domestic terrorism threats and Middle East conflict spillover effects.
