Massive cyber attack disrupts gas stations in Iran – Outney.net

A cyber attack hit Iran’s online gasoline distribution system, affecting gas stations across the country.

State television and a source close to the country’s security apparatus said on Tuesday that the origin of the revenge was under investigation.

Thousands of petrol stations went offline starting before noon, but the cause was not confirmed as a cyber attack until later in the day.

After a few hours, some gas stations across the country resumed service delivery, but offline and with an open tariff that is double the subsidized tariff offered through streamlined “smart fuel cards”.

Officials said all petrol stations will return to normal soon.

Iran has suffered several high-profile sabotage attacks recently, including two – blamed on Israel – against its key Natanz nuclear facilities.

The attack came shortly before the second anniversary of the November 2019 nationwide protests against the overnight increase in the price of gasoline.

At the time, gasoline prices tripled, sparking protests that Amnesty International has said led to the deaths of more than 300 people.

Internet access was also shut down across the country for nearly a week during the protests. Some areas where protests were still going on experienced several weeks of internet outages.

Videos on social media showed long queues at gas stations that were out of order.

Some also reported that the city’s digital monitors had been hacked, displaying messages such as “Khamenei, where is our gasoline?” addressed to the supreme leader of the country.

Local officials denied the monitors had been hacked. ISNA’s semi-official news site published a story saying the city’s gasoline distribution system and digital monitors had been hacked, but later said its website was the target of a cyber attack and hackers published the story.
