IRGC warns of targeting US tech firms in retaliation for assassinations
Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps issues a public warning that leading US technology companies may be targeted if further assassinations of Iranian leaders occur.
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has announced that it will target a list of US technology firms, including Apple, Google, Meta, and Microsoft, in retaliation for any future assassinations of Iranian leaders. The statement, framed as a deterrent, claims these companies are involved in supporting or enabling terrorist operations against Iran and that relevant units of these organizations could be targeted. The warning raises the risk of potential cyber, physical, or supply‑chain attacks against these and other ICT firms, and should be treated as an elevated cyber and geopolitical threat indicator for named entities and their partners.
