On the 11th local time, Al Jazeera reported that the Tasnim News Agency, affiliated with Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, released a list detailing offices and infrastructure operated by U.S. companies with ties to Israel, describing them as "new targets for Iran."
Tasnim News Agency wrote, "As the scope of regional war expands to infrastructure warfare, the range of legitimate targets for Iran is also expanding."
The list of companies published by Tasnim News Agency includes Google, Microsoft, Palantir, International Business Machines Corporation (IBM), Nvidia, and Oracle.
The technology of these companies has been used for military purposes, and their offices and cloud-based facilities in the region are located in multiple cities in Israel and some Gulf countries.
According to a report by the Financial Times on March 6, as U.S. technology companies rapidly expand their data center networks in the Middle East, these multi-billion-dollar regional artificial intelligence infrastructures have become targets in the battlefield for the first time.
