Russian Teenager Hospitalized After Vaping Incident at School
A Russian high school student in Angarsk passed out after using an e-cigarette in the school bathroom.

According to a recent report by tkgorod, a tenth-grade student in Angarsk, Russia suddenly fell ill during class break and was immediately taken away by paramedics.

 

According to reports, a student collapsed suddenly during school break after using an e-cigarette with friends in the school restroom. Just a few puffs caused him to lose consciousness.

 

Larisa Lysak, the Head of the Education Administration Department of Angarsk City, openly acknowledged the occurrence of this incident. She also stated that preventive education has been provided to the students involved as well as their parents. As for the decision on whether to register the individuals involved in the incident, it will be determined by the school authorities.

 

The prosecutor's office has initiated an independent investigation into this incident.

 

This incident is not the first occurrence of students using e-cigarettes in the Angarsk region. In April of last year, a parent was penalized due to their child's excessive use of e-cigarettes. It is worth noting that the misuse of e-cigarettes by teenagers is not solely an issue in Angarsk, as doctors have long been warning about the problem of teenagers excessively using e-cigarettes.

Special Report|Japan Tobacco Buys CLEW: Can Its 160,000-Store Cigarette Network Help It Vie for U.S. Nicotine Pouch Share Against PMI and BAT?
Japan Tobacco Inc. (JT) announced on November 12, 2026, that it had acquired the U.S. assets of nicotine pouch brand CLEW from Nevcore Innovations Inc., including trademarks, intellectual property, product formulations and a Premarket Tobacco Product Application (PMTA). CLEW, currently distributed through selected outlets in 13 U.S. states, will immediately join the JTI LIGGETT portfolio. The transaction follows JT's approximately $2.4 billion acquisition of U.S. cigarette maker Vector Group in 2024. JTI LIGGETT says its existing cigarette brands reach more than 160,000 U.S. retail stores. During the 2026 NACS Show in October, JTI LIGGETT booth staff told 2Firsts that the company had not yet launched nicotine pouches in the United States. Although Nevcore previously announced FDA acceptance of CLEW's PMTA, the brand is absent from the agency's current list of authorized nicotine pouch products. JT has not disclosed a retail expansion plan for CLEW.

STIIIZY Redesign Fails to Escape PAX Labs Patent Import Ban as Section 337 Case Also Involves China ALD
U.S. Customs and Border Protection ruled that STIIIZY had not shown that the redesigned cannabis-vape products covered by its latest request fall outside an ITC limited exclusion order tied to PAX Labs patents. CBP accepted some of STIIIZY’s claim-construction and non-infringement arguments, but the company did not address two additional claims in the same patent. Earlier STIIIZY redesigned cartridges and certain associated components imported with them had received separate CBP clearance.
