The new US sanctions are “groundless”.

Iran today described the new claims as “baseless”. sanctions imposed by the US against two companies and four individuals involved, according to Washington, in “malicious cyber attacks».

These attacks were carried out “in the name of the cyber-electronic command of the Revolutionary Guard Corps”, the ideological army of the Islamic Republic of Iran, the US Treasury announced yesterday, Tuesday.

They were carried out “against businesses and US government entities” according to Washington.

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani “strongly rejected and condemned the baseless allegations of the US government against Iranian individuals and businesses.”

According to Kanaani, the United States “accuses Iranian individuals and institutions without any basis in order to divert attention as he said from the wave of criticism around the world against the United States’ policies of unlimited support for the war crimes and genocide committed by the Zionist regime [το Ισραήλ] in his war against the Gaza Strip.”

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ Cyber ​​Command is one of the Iranian government agencies behind the hacks, working through a series of front companies to target the United States and several other countries, the US Treasury Department said.

For the US Treasury Department, the Iranian people “need to know that this administration is using private companies and their employees to achieve its illegal goals.”

Last Thursday, the US, in coordination with Britain, was the first to tighten sanctions against Iran after the latter’s attack on Israel on April 13, targeting “Iran’s drone program, steel and car manufacturers”.

The attack launched by Iran followed an airstrike Tehran attributed to Israel in which seven members of the Revolutionary Guards, including two generals, were killed at the Iranian consulate in Damascus.
