- 🇮🇷/🇫🇷 New: Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araji rejected France's accusation that Iran was behind cyber attacks disrupting the refrigeration systems of supermarkets, and accused Paris of "shifting the blame" for its failures.
"Incapable of managing refrigerators let alone addressing the grievances of its people, the French government is shifting the blame for its failures onto others."
"Yes, Iran is strong. But unlike France, we do not use force by supporting massacres in Gaza or bombing schools and hospitals."
France claims the cyber operation was linked to Iran and has announced plans to summon the Iranian ambassador, pursue additional European sanctions against Iranian entities and individuals, and reserve the right to take further public or non-public action.
