The Iranian fuel 2021 cyberstrike was an attack on the Iranian fuel system, government-issued cards used for buying subsidized fuel, and digital road billboards. The attack took place on 26 October 2021. The government announced that people had to buy gas without their ration card. According to the Supreme Council of Cyberspace, the attacks were similar to the attack on the Iranian rail road transit system in July.[1][2] Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi stated, "this cyberattack is neither the first time nor will it be the last."[3]
Network infrastructure is a semi-isolated system not connected to the Internet but instead uses the National Internet (National Information Network).[4]
Gholamreza Jalali, the head of Iranian civil defense, accused the United States and Israel of being behind the attack in an interview with state TV.[5]
