In the current conflict conditions in the region, the infrastructure and offices of major American technology companies may be viewed by Iran as legitimate targets, Iranian agency Tasnim reports.

The outlet specifically mentions the following companies: Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Nvidia, IBM, Oracle, Palantir, and other American tech firms.

It is noted that these companies have offices, data centers, and important technological infrastructure in Gulf states and other regions that could become targets if the conflict expands.

The outlet also indicates that employees and residents should avoid being near the offices and facilities of these companies, as they may be considered legitimate targets within defensive and offensive operations.

Furthermore, it is noted that conflict escalation may expand from traditional military zones to economic and technological infrastructure, increasing the likelihood of these facilities becoming potential targets.
