French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot blames Iran’s Revolutionary Guard for the cyberattacks on commercial refrigeration and freezer systems in France.
Iran will face consequences, and the country’s ambassador has been summoned to the Foreign Ministry, Reuters reports.
The attacks in October knocked out temperature controls in refrigeration systems at hundreds of businesses and caused extensive product losses and, in some cases, fires.
A second wave of attacks has hit more than 100 businesses in Europe, including French blood banks.
US military bases have also been hit by similar incidents.
The Pentagon suspects Iranian involvement, but the investigation is ongoing and no connection between the attacks has been established.
