Translation: two blocks, one for 1 year and one for half a year, applied at the same time 12:45, 9 September 2025 by two different administrators.

What should have happened instead?:
Conflicting blocks should not be applied before warning a user. Administrators should get a warning to see if they still want to apply the block if another administrator already blocked the user with some other parameters.
