Farsnews Agency

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.
