Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has rejected France’s accusation that an IRGC-linked cyber unit sabotaged supermarket refrigeration systems. The IRGC accused Israel of spreading misinformation.

French authorities blame Shahid Kaveh for what they describe as the first large-scale cyber sabotage on French soil. On October 11 and 12, hackers drove temperatures inside refrigeration units to as high as 50C (122F) at about 700 stores.

“Paris should beware the Zionist regime’s false flag trap,” IRGC spokesman Sardar Mohebi said on X.

“Unlike the US and the Zionist regime, civilians have no place on the target list of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps,” he said, adding that the “ridiculous claim” is the “Zionists’ tired old playbook for stoking fear of Iran and winning allies in Europe”.
