The Revolutionary Guards warned France against falling into an Israeli "false flag trap" aimed at turning European countries against Iran, following accusations from Paris that Tehran was behind cyber attacks on French supermarkets.
￭ On November 9, French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrow accused a cyber unit linked to the Revolutionary Guards of attacking refrigeration systems at more than 700 retail sites on October 11-12.
￭ In response on November 14, the spokesman for the Revolutionary Guards, Lt. Gen. Hossein Mohabi, warned: "Paris should beware of the false flag trap of the Israeli regimes."
￭ Mohavi dismissed the accusations as a "worn-out Israeli scenario" designed to stir up anti-Iranian sentiment and mobilize European support against Tehran.
￭ "Unlike the USA and Israel, civilians are not among the targets of the Revolutionary Guards," Mohabi stated.
