Dubai denies Oracle data centre bombing by IRGC; says: Circulating news is ...

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) recently claimed that it has struck one of the data centres of Oracle in Dubai. The Government of Dubai has denied the attack. In a statement posted on microblogging platform X (formerly Twitter), the Media Office of Government of Dubai called it a “Fake news”. In another post, it said that the circulating news is “fabricated and untrue”. Earlier today, an AlJazeera report said that IRGC’s navy command has claimed to launch an attack on a data center belonging to the US technology firm Oracle in Dubai. TNotably, the report comes just a day after IRGC claimed credit for an attack on an Amazon cloud computing center in Bahrain. The Bahrain's Interior Ministry then said that civil defence teams were extinguishing a fire at a company facility following what authorities described as an Iranian attack. Earlier this week, Iran's Revolutionary Guards threatened to target U.S. companies in the Middle East, including Microsoft, Google and Apple amid the ongoing US-Israel-Iran war.Sending a warning to American companies, IRGC said in the message that it would start targeting US technology and finance companies in the Middle East. IRGC's post warned "employees of these companies to leave their workplaces immediately to save their lives. It said that residents around these terrorist companies in all countries in the region should also leave their places within a radius of one kilometer and go to a safe place." In a statement, the Guards said, "These companies, starting from 8:00 pm (1630 GMT) Tehran time on Wednesday, April 1, should expect the destruction of their relevant units in exchange for every assassination in Iran."Out of the 18 companies named in IRGC's letter, 10 are American technology companies.
