🚨🇫🇷🇮🇷 France accuses Iran of hacking supermarket refrigeration systems, causing millions in damages

France has accused Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) of carrying out cyberattacks that remotely raised temperatures in supermarket refrigerators and freezers, destroying millions of euros worth of food.

The October attacks affected more than 280 stores across France, including Intermarché, Netto, and Coopérative U. Some refrigeration units reportedly reached temperatures as high as 50°C (122°F) overnight.

French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot described the attacks as unprecedented in scale and aggression, announcing plans for European sanctions. French prosecutors have also opened an investigation into three individuals linked to an IRGC-affiliated cyber unit.

Iran has not yet responded to the allegations.
