Iran blamed foreign countries, including Israel, for a cyber attack on its semi-official Fars News Agency, which is affiliated with the country’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
The attack disrupted the website of the Fars through a complex hacking and cyberattack operation.
However, Fars said removing possible bugs could cause problems for some agency services for a few days.
