Massive Cyber-Attacks Hit Iran, Disrupt Government Services and Target Nuclear Sites Amid Rising Tensions with Israel
As tensions escalate between Iran and Israel, a significant cyber-attack on October 12 targeted multiple establishments across Iran, including critical nuclear facilities. The widespread cyber-assault has disrupted nearly all Iranian government services, with severe impacts reported across the judiciary, legislature, and executive branches.
The attacks come shortly after Israel vowed retaliation for Iran’s October 1 missile strike. While Israel has not confirmed involvement, speculation mounts that this could be a retaliatory move. A former secretary of Iran’s Supreme Council of Cybersecurity confirmed the attacks, noting that sensitive information had been stolen from government sectors. He stated, “Almost every sector of the Iranian government, including the judiciary, legislature, and executive, has been affected by these cyber-attacks.”
The attacks are seen as part of the ongoing struggle between the two nations, with Israeli and Iranian officials remaining on high alert as tensions continue to rise.
