Belgian ministers contradict each other about Iranian role in freezer hacks

Earlier this month, a cyberattack disrupted refrigeration systems in several Belgian supermarkets, leading to significant food waste. Similar incidents occurred in France, attributed to Iranian-linked hacker groups. Belgian intelligence has found indications of these groups' involvement, but lacks sufficient evidence to officially blame Iran. Information sharing between relevant services is ongoing, but accusations against other countries must go through the ministry. The coalition government is currently facing a budget crisis. Other European countries also experienced similar cyberattacks, affecting various supermarket chains, while larger Dutch supermarkets remained unaffected. Iran denies any involvement in the attacks.
