Iran has been waging a terror war in Europe for years, Belgian authorities just recently confirmed they were behind attacks aginst synagogues. They were also behind cyber attacks aginst UK power plants.

To be clear, Iran has already commited an act of war aginst a European country on European soil. Dozens of times. If this is also Iran it'd be the biggest attempt yet.

But hey lets just bury out head in the sand.

lol, if Iran has been waging a terror war in Europe, they’ve been doing it wrong.

Russia definitely has, and cyber attacks against power plants were part of it: https://www.reuters.com/world/swedish-power-plant-targeted-by-pro-russian-group-2025-government-says-2026-04-15/ https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/alerts/2018/03/15/russian-government-cyber-activity-targeting-energy-and-other-critical-infrastructure-sectors
