The French government cannot even guarantee the safety of the refrigeration equipment, declared Iran's foreign minister, Abbas Araqchi.
"The French government, which is unable to manage refrigerators, much less solve the problems of its people, blames others for its failures. Yes, Iran is strong. But, unlike France, we do not use force that supports massacres in Gaza or the bombing of schools and hospitals," he wrote on his X page.
On November 9, France accused Iran of a large-scale cyber attack against supermarket refrigeration equipment in October. The Iranian Foreign Ministry denied the allegations.
