France Accuses Iran’s IRGC of Cyberattack on Food Stores, Summons Ambassador

According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, France‘s Foreign Minister, Jean-Noël Barrot, has alleged that Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) was responsible for a cyberattack targeting food store refrigeration units last month. No evidence has been presented to substantiate these claims.

Speaking to reporters on Monday, Barrot described the attack as unprecedented in its scale and aggression, stating it was aimed at disrupting operations on French soil and constituted a major infringement upon the nation’s vital interests and public security.

The French Foreign Minister further announced that Paris intends to pursue retaliatory sanctions at the European level and has accordingly summoned the Iranian ambassador. However, the Élysée Palace has not yet released any evidence supporting its allegations against Tehran.
