The disclosure was made in the company’s latest threat intelligence report, which details several cases in which individuals and groups allegedly attempted to exploit AI technology for malicious purposes.
Anthropic said some of the activity involved efforts that could support the development of biological weapons.
The company also reported cases involving conventional weapons, including firearms, missiles, armed drones, bombs and other ammunition, according to reporting on the company’s findings.
The report comes amid growing concern about the potential misuse of increasingly capable AI systems.
Technology companies and security researchers have warned that AI tools could lower the technical barriers for people seeking to carry out sophisticated cyberattacks or other harmful activities.
Anthropic also said its Claude model had been used in a Russia-linked cyber-espionage campaign.
The company reported that the cases it detected over the past eight months ranged from fraudulent dating applications and hotel Wi-Fi scams to surveillance systems designed to identify dissidents.
The company said its investigation also uncovered the use of Claude by an Iranian propaganda institution.
Anthropic has previously positioned safety and restrictions on the use of its AI systems as a central part of its approach to developing advanced models.
The latest report illustrates the difficulty technology companies face in preventing their systems from being exploited by people with malicious intentions.
The report also includes allegations concerning Chinese AI companies, which Anthropic said had attempted to replicate capabilities associated with Claude.
The developments come shortly after a former senior Anthropic researcher publicly warned about the potential risks posed by increasingly powerful AI systems.
Those warnings have intensified debate over how quickly advanced AI should be developed and what safeguards should be put in place.
Anthropic said it released the threat intelligence report because it believes it has a responsibility to disclose how its services are being misused.
The company said the cases involved a range of actors, including suspected state-backed groups, cybercriminals, spyware providers, political actors and institutions linked to state propaganda.
The revelations highlight a growing challenge for the AI industry: while advanced AI can be used for scientific research, productivity and other beneficial purposes, the same capabilities can potentially be exploited for criminal, military or other harmful activities.
Anthropic’s findings do not mean that AI systems themselves independently developed biological or conventional weapons.
Rather, the company says people attempted to use its AI model to assist with activities that could contribute to such development.
Anthropic says it disrupted attempts to misuse its Claude AI model for potentially harmful activities.
Researchers at Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, part of the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, found that blocking a receptor known as IL1RAP can disrupt an inflammatory network that helps pancreatic tumors survive and resist treatment.
Pancreatic cancer is among the most difficult cancers to treat successfully.
One of the challenges is the tumor microenvironment, which consists of surrounding cells and tissues that can support tumor growth and help cancer cells withstand treatment.
According to the researchers, IL1RAP plays an important role in connecting tumor cells, immune cells and fibroblasts, helping create an environment that protects the cancer.
In preclinical experiments, blocking IL1RAP changed this environment in several ways.
Researchers observed fewer immune-suppressive cells, increased activity of cancer-fighting T cells and reduced fibrosis, a buildup of scar-like tissue that can contribute to treatment resistance.
The researchers also found that tumors responded more strongly when IL1RAP inhibition was combined with other treatments, suggesting that targeting the receptor could potentially improve the effectiveness of chemotherapy and immunotherapy.
Jashodeep Datta, a pancreatic and hepatobiliary surgical oncologist at Sylvester and senior author of the study, said IL1RAP acts as a shared receptor through which several inflammatory signals communicate.
Rather than attempting to destroy cancer cells directly, the approach aims to dismantle some of the biological support systems surrounding the tumor, potentially leaving the cancer more vulnerable to existing treatments.
The research, published in JCI Insight, has now moved toward the next stage.
Sylvester researchers are advancing a neoadjuvant clinical trial, in which IL1RAP-targeted treatment will be combined with chemoimmunotherapy in patients with operable pancreatic cancer before surgery.
The trial could also allow researchers to compare tumor samples before and after treatment, giving them an opportunity to observe how the cancer changes in response to the therapy.
However, the researchers stress that the findings so far come from preclinical studies.
Further testing in patients will be needed to determine whether targeting IL1RAP is safe and effective as a treatment for pancreatic cancer.
The study was supported by a Translational Research Grant from the V Foundation.
The researchers received $800,000 over four years to help move the work from laboratory research toward early-stage clinical testing.
Researchers are studying IL1RAP as a potential target for weakening pancreatic cancer’s defenses.
Dr. Gahima was elected on September 11 to succeed Dr. Mbanda, whose tenure has been marked by the church’s growing membership, efforts to achieve financial self-reliance and its decision to distance itself from the Church of England over what it considers departures from biblical teachings.
Speaking to IGIHE, Dr. Mbanda said he was satisfied with the election of his successor and described Dr. Gahima as a humble, trustworthy and experienced leader who has served in education, local government and the church.
“He is a person who loves evangelism and is a leader,” Dr. Mbanda said, adding that he and the other bishops were pleased with his election.
Dr. Mbanda said he leaves the Anglican Church in Rwanda in a strong position after eight years of growth. He said every diocese has recorded an increase in membership and expanded its evangelism activities.
He cited the Community Bible Study programme, which started in one diocese and has now expanded across all dioceses, reaching about 200,000 people who study the Bible while also receiving support aimed at improving their livelihoods.
The church has also established two new dioceses since 2018, in Karongi and Nyaruguru, while new parishes and churches have been established in different parts of the country.
Dr. Mbanda said one of the major challenges during his tenure was changing people’s understanding of the church’s mission. He argued that evangelism should address both spiritual and material needs, including food, healthcare and livelihoods.
He said the church has also prioritised financial self-reliance and has reduced its dependence on external funding.
Asked what he would like his successor to focus on, Dr. Mbanda said Dr. Gahima should preserve the unity of the church and maintain its direction while building on the foundation already established.
“I would advise him to remain firm in Christ, keep Christ at the centre of the church, uphold the Word of God and place it at the centre of the church,” he said.
Dr. Mbanda also addressed the Anglican Church in Rwanda’s disagreement with the Church of England, saying the dispute was primarily about biblical teachings rather than the appointment of a woman to leadership.
He said the Anglican Church in Rwanda has women in leadership positions, including female pastors, and that the central issue was what he described as the promotion of teachings that conflict with the Bible.
On same-sex relationships, Dr. Mbanda said people should not be prevented from attending church or hearing the Word of God.
“We do not prevent anyone from hearing the Word of God,” he said. “We believe it changes people and that people need to be saved.”
However, he said the church would not accept people in same-sex relationships serving as bishops or pastors, arguing that church leaders must meet the standards set out in the Bible.
Dr. Mbanda said the decision to distance the Rwandan church from the Church of England had not harmed it financially or otherwise. He said the church had lost some forms of support but had replaced them through its own activities.
“When you are self-reliant, you have a voice,” he said, arguing that the church should not compromise its beliefs for financial support.
Although Dr. Mbanda will leave the position of Archbishop in October, he said he would remain active in Christian ministry and expected to undertake other responsibilities within the Global Anglican Communion.
Dr. Laurent Mbanda has reflected on his eight years at the helm of the Anglican Church in Rwanda and the legacy he leaves for his successor.
The plant based at Musanze Industrial Park in Kimonyi Sector, was built by Indian investors at a cost of $20 million (Rwf29 billion) and is expected to use 40 megawatts of electricity per day.
Unlike plants that recycle scrap metal into new steel products, A1 Iron & Steel Rwanda Ltd will process locally sourced iron-bearing raw materials, particularly those extracted from mines in Rulindo District.
The minerals will first be smelted into steel, which will then be used to manufacture a range of products.
The plant is expected to produce more than 10 types of steel products, including nails, steel wires, steel pipes, reinforcing bars and other products mainly used in construction.
Speaking at the inauguration ceremony, Prime Minister Nsengiyumva said the plant will increase the volume of products manufactured locally while adding value to available resources.
“For years our industrial sector has relied heavily on imported steel. In 2025 alone, Rwanda imported more than US$150 million worth of steel products and we expect that our growing economy will continue to drive rising demand for steel as we build our infrastructure, our cities and our businesses. But importantly, A1 Iron and Steel changes that equation,” he said.
“By processing locally sourced iron ore into finished steel products here in Rwanda, this plant helps us move up the value chain and capture more of the value our own economic development creates. This is an achievement worth celebrating,” the premier added.
The Premier added that the plant will position Rwanda among countries that export steel products, particularly within the region.
Opportunities for Rwandans
Northern Province Governor Maurice Mugabowagahunde said the plant demonstrates investors’ confidence in Rwanda and will contribute to the province’s development, particularly in infrastructure and industrialisation.
The plant currently employs around 500 people, the majority of whom are Rwandans, and the number is expected to increase to 1,000.
It is also expected to create opportunities for about 2,500 people working in activities outside the plant but linked to its operations.
Governor Mugabowagahunde assured the investors that the raw materials required by the plant are available in sufficient quantities in Northern Province, ensuring that its operations will not be disrupted by shortages.
A1 Iron & Steel Ltd Chief Executive Officer Himanshu Tiwari said the completion of the plant marks an important milestone and opens a new chapter in Rwanda’s industrial development.
He explained the plant will focus on using raw materials available in Rwanda to produce essential construction materials, enabling it to meet domestic demand while also exporting and generating more revenue for Rwanda.
Tiwari thanked the Rwandan Government for its clear vision for industrial development and for supporting and facilitating investors seeking to invest in Rwanda.
The $20 million A1 Iron & Steel plant was built by Indian investors in Musanze Industrial Park.Prime Minister Justin Nsengiyumva officially inaugurated A1 Iron & Steel Rwanda Ltd in Musanze on September 11, 2026.A1 Iron & Steel Rwanda Ltd is expected to produce up to 250,000 tonnes of steel products annually.
Dr. Gahima was elected on Friday during the General Assembly of leaders of the Anglican Church in Rwanda held at its headquarters in Kigali.
He was among the leading candidates for the position and faced Bishop Assiel Musabyimana, Bishop of the Diocese of Kigeme, in the final stage of the election.
Nathan Rusengo Amooti, Bishop of the Diocese of Kigali, had also initially been listed among those eligible for the position but later withdrew, leaving two candidates in the final race.
In March 2026, Dr. Gahima was elected chairperson of the Council of Protestant Churches in Rwanda (CPR). His election to that position brought his name into wider consideration as a potential successor to Dr. Mbanda as head of the Anglican Church in Rwanda.
Dr. Gahima had been serving as Bishop of the Diocese of Gahini and was the second bishop to lead the diocese.
Born in 1970, he grew up in Uganda after his family fled to the country. He completed his primary education at Kasonga in Uganda before continuing his secondary education at Kololo and St Andrea Kahwa’s College.
He later obtained a degree in education and pursued higher education in business studies at what was then known as Umutara Polytechnic, now part of the University of Rwanda.
He also holds postgraduate degrees in human resource management and theology, as well as a PhD in theology.
Before joining the leadership of the Anglican Church, Dr. Gahima worked in education and local government.
From 1995 to 1997, he served as deputy head of Lycée de Kigali, where he was responsible for students studying in English.
Between 1997 and 2001, he served as mayor of the former Karangazi Commune, and from 2004 to 2005, he was mayor of the former Gabiro Commune.
Following reforms in Rwanda’s local government structures, Dr. Gahima moved into church leadership in the Diocese of Gahini, where he served as deputy diocesan leader.
In 2019, he was consecrated Bishop of the Diocese of Gahini, a position he held for seven years before being elected to lead the Anglican Church in Rwanda.
Dr. Gahima is married and has eight children.

At 8:46 a.m., a hijacked American Airlines plane crashed into the World Trade Center. Seventeen minutes later, at 9:03 a.m., a second hijacked plane struck the South Tower. There was little doubt that the United States was under attack.
Rwabukumba, who now heads the Rwanda Stock Exchange and serves as President of the African Securities Exchanges Association (ASEA), was among the Rwandans in New York that day.
Speaking to IGIHE, he said that 25 years later, the images of that day remain vivid.
“It happened in the morning as I was going to work, before the market had opened. I was trading stocks in New York. The buildings had collapsed, there was dust everywhere and there was a strong smell.”
As people around him struggled to come to terms with what was happening, Rwabukumba said his colleagues were surprised that he appeared less shaken than they were.
“The white people I worked with in New York were immediately terrified. They asked me, ‘How come you don’t seem as shaken as we are?’”
His response was shaped by his own experience of Rwanda’s history.
“The image it brought back to me was Rwanda in 1994, during the Genocide against the Tutsi. One of the things it left us with was resilience.”
Rwabukumba said he saw a significant difference between the two tragedies. The Genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda was aimed at exterminating Tutsi because of who they were, while those killed on September 11 were people going about their daily lives, whether at work, on planes or elsewhere, without being selected on the basis of ethnicity.
The September 11 attacks killed 2,977 people from 90 countries. Of these, 2,753 were killed in New York, 184 at the Pentagon and 40 aboard United Airlines Flight 93, which crashed in Pennsylvania.
The victims also included emergency responders, including 343 New York firefighters, 23 NYPD officers and 37 officers from the Port Authority Police Department.
102 minutes that changed America
The first plane struck the World Trade Center at 8:46 a.m., followed by the second at 9:03 a.m. At 9:37 a.m., American Airlines Flight 77 crashed into the Pentagon, the headquarters of the US Department of Defense.
At 9:59 a.m., the South Tower collapsed after burning for 56 minutes. At 10:03 a.m., United Airlines Flight 93 crashed near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, after passengers attempted to wrest control of the aircraft from the hijackers.
At 10:28 a.m., the North Tower also collapsed.
Within a short period, the area known as the heart of New York’s financial and commercial district was engulfed in dust, smoke and debris.
His family thought he was dead
One of his strongest memories is the disruption of communications. Damage to power and telecommunications infrastructure in Lower Manhattan made it difficult even for financial institutions outside the immediate attack sites to continue operating.
For Rwabukumba, the problem was not only about work. His family could no longer establish whether he was alive.
“The phones came back later, and that was when we called each other and I told them that I was alive. They were devastated; they thought I was dead.”
The Rwandan Embassy also sought information about Rwandans in the area.
“They called us to ask whether we were safe, and we told them we were fine. Rwandans also reassured one another.”
Although many Americans were deeply frightened, Rwabukumba said most of the Rwandans he knew did not immediately consider leaving the country.
The New York Stock Exchange had not opened when the first planes struck the World Trade Center. Power, communications and security problems contributed to the closure of US financial markets. The NYSE reopened on September 17, 2001, six days later.
Rwabukumba said the attacks also came at a time when the US economy was already facing difficulties.
Data from the National Bureau of Economic Research shows that the US recession had begun in March 2001, six months before the September 11 attacks.
According to Rwabukumba, investors were already concerned following the technology-sector downturn that had begun in 2000.
“The overall economic picture was not good. People were wondering where to invest their money. When the attacks happened, they pushed things much further backwards.”
Rwanda Stock Exchange CEO Pierre Célestin Rwabukumba, was in New York during the September 11, 2001 attacks.
More than 4,500 planes ordered to land
The attacks also immediately transformed air travel in the United States.
At 9:25 a.m., the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) halted all flights scheduled to depart. At 9:45 a.m., it ordered all aircraft in US airspace to land at the nearest airports.
More than 4,500 aircraft were in the air at the time. By 12:15 p.m., the skies over the 48 contiguous US states were clear of commercial and private aircraft. It was the first time the United States had taken such a sweeping measure.
Rwabukumba said the experience still comes to mind when he travels. “Even today, when I go through an airport and I am asked to remove my shoes or belt, I immediately think about how the world changed after that attack.”
The requirement to remove shoes, however, was specifically tightened after another incident on December 22, 2001, when Richard Reid attempted to detonate explosives hidden in his shoes aboard American Airlines Flight 63.
Muslims faced suspicion
Rwabukumba also remembers how Muslims, Arabs and people perceived to resemble them increasingly faced suspicion following the attacks.
“Life became difficult for foreigners, starting with Muslims, Arabs and people who looked like them.”
Looking back, Rwabukumba said the attacks did not fundamentally change who he was. Instead, they reinforced lessons he had already learned from Rwanda’s history: resilience and the need to seek solutions rather than wait for others to provide them.
“It changed my mindset and taught me to become even stronger and to look for solutions within myself. It taught me that I should not wait for someone else to come and solve my problems.”
More than two decades after working in New York’s financial sector, Rwabukumba is the CEO of the Rwanda Stock Exchange and serves as President of ASEA, an association bringing together securities exchanges across Africa.
For him, there is a meaningful connection between the work he once did in the United States and what he does today in Rwanda.
“Today, I work with others to build my country without having to go or live in New York. I am doing what I know and love in my own country. There, I was working with other people’s assets; today, we are building our own. We have our own Wall Street and our own financial system.”
The World Trade Center was destroyed in the September 11, 2001 attacks.
The agreement was signed on September 8, 2026, by Rwanda’s Ambassador to Brazil, Lawrence Manzi, on behalf of the Ministry of Education (MINEDUC), and Prof. Dr. Carlos Gilberto Carlotti Junior, Provost for International Cooperation at USP.
The MoU provides a framework for cooperation between USP and Rwandan higher learning institutions in areas of mutual interest.
Under the agreement, the institutions will facilitate exchanges of students, faculty members, researchers, as well as technical and administrative staff.
They will also collaborate on joint research projects, scientific and cultural activities, and the exchange of academic information, publications and programmes.
The agreement builds on growing education ties between Rwanda and Brazil.
In November 2025, the two countries signed an agreement on cooperation in education. This was followed by the signing of 35 memoranda of understanding between Rwandan and Brazilian universities in May 2026.
In August 2026, the first group of Rwandan Master’s and doctoral students arrived in Brazil to pursue their studies at three Brazilian universities, marking the beginning of the implementation of some of the academic cooperation agreements between the two countries.
The latest agreement with USP is expected to create additional opportunities for Rwandan students and researchers while strengthening collaboration between higher learning institutions in the two countries.
The partnership is also in line with Rwanda’s efforts to build a knowledge-based economy through investment in education, technology, innovation and research.
USP, one of Brazil’s leading universities and research institutions, is expected to provide a platform for Rwandan academics and students to access research opportunities, develop joint projects and exchange knowledge with their Brazilian counterparts.
The cooperation also adds to broader Rwanda-Brazil relations by strengthening institutional and people-to-people ties and promoting South-South cooperation in education and research.

The results were released on Friday, September 11, 2026.
NESA Director General Dr Bernard Bahati said 108,732 students registered for the examinations, including 55.05% girls and 44.95% boys.
Of the 108,406 students who sat for the examinations, 102,261 passed, representing an overall pass rate of 94.33%.
Education Minister Joseph Nsengimana said the results were a reflection of the collective efforts of students, teachers, parents and other stakeholders.
“We are glad that the results are good, because 94 per cent of the candidates passed,” he said.
The pass rate among boys stood at 95.94%, compared with 93.02% among girls.
Manzi Nshuti Kabanda Brave, who studied Mathematics, Chemistry and Biology (MCB) at Petit Séminaire Saint Aloys in Rusizi District, topped the Sciences combination with 98.40%, the highest weighted percentage recorded among General Education candidates.
Umwali Deborah, who studied History, Literature and Psychology (HLP) at Cornerstone Leadership Academy in Rwamagana, led the Arts and Humanities combination with 97.52%.
The exams, administered nationwide from July 15 to 22, 2026, covered three tracks: General Education (GE), Technical Secondary School (TSS), and Professional Education (PE).
General Education recorded the largest number of candidates, with 56,330 of 56,516 registered students sitting the exam and 53,050 passing, a 94.18% pass rate. Among learning areas, Humanities posted the strongest performance at 95.86%, ahead of Science at 93.87% and Languages at 93.61%.
In Technical Secondary School, 42,793 of 42,912 registered candidates sat the exam, with 40,459 passing for a 94.55% pass rate. Performance varied sharply by sector: Arts and Crafts recorded the highest pass rate at 99.45%, while ICT and Multimedia trailed at 89.24%, the lowest among all TSS sectors, followed by Hospitality and Tourism at 90.65%.
Professional Education posted a 94.28% pass rate, with 8,752 of 9,283 candidates passing. Within this category, the Teacher Training College (TTC) and Associate Nursing Program (ANP) options recorded pass rates above 99%, while Accounting (ACC) lagged at 88.59%.
The results also point to a broader improvement in candidate performance nationwide. The share of candidates scoring below 50% dropped to 5.63%, down from 10.91% the previous year, while those scoring 70% or above nearly reached half of all candidates, at 48.98%, up from 38.63%.
Candidates can access their individual results online at https://rne.sdms.gov.rw/. NESA said appeals on examination marks must be submitted within 30 days of the results’ publication, exclusively through the School Data Management System (SDMS) and only by head teachers on behalf of candidates.
A total of 94.33% of students who sat for Rwanda’s 2025/2026 national examinations, marking the completion of senior secondary school, have passed, the National Examination and School Inspection Authority (NESA) has announced.
Mukantaganzwa made the remarks on Friday, September 11, 2026, while addressing members of the press, two days after France’s Court of Cassation, the country’s highest court, confirmed the dismissal of the long-running case concerning the alleged failure of French troops to intervene to protect Tutsi who had sought refuge in the Bisesero hills in western Rwanda.
“What I can say about it is that it is a decision that Rwanda’s judiciary is not pleased with because, as you know, France is one of the countries that has tried many people involved in the Genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda, although most of them, I believe, were Rwandans,” Mukantaganzwa said.
The case was brought in 2005 by six Genocide survivors and human rights organisations, who accused French soldiers serving under Opération Turquoise of knowingly failing to protect Tutsi civilians at Bisesero, where hundreds were killed between June 27 and 30, 1994.
French courts subsequently halted the investigation, with the dismissal upheld at several stages before the Court of Cassation rejected an appeal on September 9, 2026.
The Court of Cassation found that French soldiers could not be expected to act without precise orders from their chain of command and found no evidence that officers intended to facilitate crimes against Tutsi civilians.
The court also said the delay before the rescue operation reflected the time needed to clarify a confused situation, while the soldiers had limited information about the killings and the nature of the Genocide against the Tutsi.
Mukantaganzwa said the decision would remain a matter of discussion, while acknowledging that judicial matters are handled through established legal channels within sovereign states.
“So perhaps, because it concerns their own citizens, that is where the issue arose. But it is an issue that will continue to be discussed. We cannot say that we are pleased with it, but at the same time, in terms of national sovereignty, judicial matters have their own channels through which they must proceed,” she said.
The Bisesero case has remained one of the most contentious legal issues surrounding France’s role during the Genocide against the Tutsi.
The decision by France’s highest court brings the particular legal proceedings against the French soldiers to an end, although questions surrounding the conduct of French forces during Opération Turquoise continue to feature in broader discussions about accountability and France’s role during the Genocide against the Tutsi.
Supreme Court President Domitilla Mukantaganzwa speaks to members of the press in Kigali on September 11, 2026.
According to the Office of the President, the two leaders discussed the strengthening of Rwanda-France relations, cooperation in areas of mutual interest, as well as regional and global developments.
The meeting came as Kagame attended the International Space Summit, a two-day gathering convened by Macron that brought together Heads of State and Government, space agency leaders and industry representatives to discuss governance, security and sustainable development in the space sector.
Addressing the summit, Kagame called for greater African participation in the rapidly growing global space economy, warning against reproducing existing inequalities in the sector.
“For a continent with a young and increasingly connected population, this sector offers enormous potential,” Kagame said, arguing that African countries should be contributors to science, research and global decision-making rather than merely users of space technologies.
He highlighted Rwanda’s national space policy and the use of space technologies and artificial intelligence in agriculture, infrastructure and disaster management.
Kagame also raised concerns over access to orbital and spectrum resources as satellite constellations expand, citing Rwanda’s support for African efforts to regain several orbital slots through the African Telecommunications Union.
He called for clear international rules for the space sector, with developing countries given a meaningful voice in shaping global frameworks and greater access to technology and knowledge.
“Ultimately, we should avoid reproducing in space the inequalities that exist in other domains,” he said, adding that Rwanda was ready to work with France, Europe and other partners to deepen space cooperation.
The meeting follows another engagement between Kagame and Macron in Paris in June, when they inaugurated a monument honouring victims of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi.
At the event, Kagame commended Macron for acknowledging France’s historical responsibility, describing his recognition of the country’s failures as “something more valuable than an apology.”
The latest talks come as Rwanda and France continue to strengthen cooperation across political, economic and technological areas, alongside discussions on regional and international affairs.
President Macron hosted his Rwandan counterpart, President Paul Kagame, for talks at the Élysée Palace in Paris on Friday morning.According to the Office of the President, the two leaders discussed the strengthening of Rwanda-France relations, cooperation in areas of mutual interest, as well as regional and global developments.
