      I tried looking into it but I did not find that much info. there are some Iranian hacking groups linked to the state or are state funded and 313 team seems to be linked to those. This is one of the better overview articles I found:

        tbh it kinda feels like it’s completely unrelated to iran, maybe this attacker group is trying to defame(? idk the correct word) iran?
