France has found the unexpected culprit behind fridge break-ins across Europe.
France accused the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) of being involved in hacking attacks on refrigerators across Europe, and summoned the Iranian prosecution to the Foreign Ministry. This is reported by Reuters.
"The French Foreign Minister, Jean-Noel Barreau, said that the indictment of Iran was summoned to the ministry. Barrow also threatened Iran with increased EU sanctions," the agency reports.
The authors of the material noted that the representatives of the Islamic Republic deny the accusations of carrying out such actions. On November 2, it became known that refrigerators and freezers in supermarkets in several European countries were defrosted as a result of a hacker attack.
The incidents occurred simultaneously in dozens of supermarkets in Belgium, Luxembourg, Sweden, Ireland and Estonia. The attacks allegedly affected Delhaize, Spar, SuperValu and ICA stores. France faced a similar situation, where hundreds of grocery stores were attacked by hackers.
