Germany has condemned cyberattacks on grocery stores in France, which Paris has blamed on Iran.
Germany’s Foreign Ministry said on Wednesday, November 10, that it had repeatedly urged Iran to end its “destabilising” activities.
The ministry described the attacks as unacceptable.
The reaction came after France’s foreign minister accused Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) of carrying out cyberattacks targeting the refrigeration systems of grocery stores.
According to the French Foreign Ministry, the attacks took place on October 11 and 12.
The attacks affected hundreds of stores, causing refrigerators to warm up and food products to spoil.
Following the incident, the stores were forced to dispose of perishable food products.
