"As the regional conflict expands into infrastructure warfare, Iran's legitimate targets are gradually expanding. The list included five Amazon facilities, five Microsoft, six IBM, three Palantir, four Google, three Nvidia, and three Oracle buildings across Bahrain, Israel, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates."
"Iran is vowing to target a mix of research and development facilities, including Google's regional Dubai office handling advertising and search operations and its Qatar office for cloud support services, Nvidia's main and largest R&D center in Haifa, IBM's AI research and threat response in Be'er Sheva, and Palantir's strategic collaboration center in Abu Dhabi."
"A spokesperson for Khatam al-Anbiya, Iran's central military command, stated via Tasnim's Telegram channel that Americans should expect our painful response, following Iran's previous deliberate targeting of three AWS datacenters in the region."
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has publicly identified 29 locations housing offices, datacenters, and research facilities of major U.S. technology companies as targets for potential retaliatory strikes. The facilities are distributed across Bahrain, Israel, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates, with specific locations including Google's Dubai advertising office, Nvidia's R&D center in Haifa, IBM's AI research facility in Be'er Sheva, Palantir's Abu Dhabi collaboration center, Oracle's Jerusalem cloud service office, and multiple Amazon and AWS datacenters. Iran's state-affiliated Tasnim news agency published the target list on Telegram, describing the infrastructure as the "enemy's technology infrastructure" and stating that legitimate targets are expanding as regional conflict extends into infrastructure warfare.
