French investigators have tied October’s sabotage of supermarket refrigeration to Shahid Kaveh, an offensive hacking unit in the cyber arm of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. An official report and the Paris prosecutor’s office said on November 9, 2026, that intruders reset defrost settings on controllers at about 700 sites from October 11 to 12, ruining stock and starting at least 15 fires. Carrefour, Leclerc, Intermarché, and other chains were hit, along with small butchers and a slaughterhouse. Prosecutors say the attackers entered through the controllers’ web interfaces and muted the temperature alarms. Investigators found Farsi in the attack infrastructure and IP addresses traced to Iran, and linked the same operation to tampering, with moderate effects, at small hydroelectric plants. Paris prosecutors are seeking international arrest warrants for the unit’s leader and two deputies. France summoned Iran’s ambassador on November 10 and will push for European sanctions, and Iran has not responded. No official has yet tied the later fridge attacks in Belgium, Luxembourg, and Sweden, or the one on French blood banks, to the same group.
