New threat from Iran to the USA: Data centers and internet cables are the target!

Secretary General of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, Mohsin Rezai, said that if the conflicts intensify, internet cables and artificial intelligence facilities in the region may be targeted.

Font size

While the tension between the USA and Iran continues, a new threat has come from the Tehran administration targeting the region's critical digital infrastructures.

Mohsen Rezai, Secretary General of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, said on Monday that internet cables, data centers and artificial intelligence facilities in the region could be targeted if the conflicts intensify again.

Rezai also described the US's latest response to Iran's proposal to end the war as "inadequate".

"USA ACCEPTED SOME CONDITIONS"

Stating that Iran is no longer responding to the USA, Rezai stated that the Washington administration should clarify some issues.

Rezai announced that some of the seven conditions offered by Iran were accepted by the United States, but uncertainty remained regarding other articles.

The Iranian official repeated his warning that if the conflicts intensify again, digital infrastructure facilities and other strategic points in the region may be targeted.

EMERGENCY MEETING BY NETANYAHU

On the other hand, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met with security officials after US President Donald Trump's statements that military attacks against Iran may restart.

According to Israel's Channel 13 television, no final decision has been made yet on resuming military operations against Iran.

The news stated that contacts between Israel and the US military continue and military coordination is carried out clearly and in detail.

THREE DAY ATTACK PLAN

US-based newspaper The New York Times claimed in its previous report that Trump asked the Pentagon to prepare new military operation plans against Iran.

According to the newspaper, among the options being considered is an intense military offensive operation that will last about three days.

While diplomatic contacts between Washington and Tehran to end the war continue, mutual military threats indicate that tensions in the region may escalate again.
