French Foreign Minister Barrot said that an investigation into the fridge hack was still underway and that Iran's ambassador to France would be summoned, Euronews reported.
French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot said Monday that Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps was behind a series of attacks targeting French supermarket fridges on the night of October 11-12.
Speaking after a G7 ministerial in Paris, Barrot said that an investigation was underway and that Iran's ambassador to France would be summoned. He added that France would target perpetrators by taking the necessary sanctions at a European level.
Speaking later, the EU's Foreign Policy chief Kaja Kallas said that the upcoming Foreign Affairs Council meeting on 16 November would provide a chance to discuss cyberattacks taking place across Europe.
"If they are attributed, our response should be stronger", she said.
The incident on 11-12 October targeted refrigeration units across more than 700 French retailers.
