Iranian media and officials reported on Saturday that several Iranian banks experienced simultaneous service disruptions, which continued into the afternoon.

ISNA news agency announced that "National Bank, Trade Bank, Export Bank, and Pasargad Bank" were among those whose mobile banking and ATMs were affected.

Fars news agency wrote that the "Export Development Bank" also faced similar disruptions and added that "some sources have reported the possibility of a cyber attack, but no official has confirmed or denied this so far."

A few hours later, Alireza Gheitasi, the secretary of the Coordination Council of State Banks, stated in an interview with state television that "the resolution of the disruptions in the services of National Bank, Export Bank, Trade Bank, and Export Development Bank is underway," without providing details about the reasons for the incident.

Attacks on Iran's banking network have a history in recent years, with customer information from various Iranian banks repeatedly targeted by cyber breaches and sold in the online space.
