Justice Department Disrupts Iranian Cyber Enabled Psychological Operations (publicnow.com)

The web sites seized are listed in the DOJ release.[1]

One of them is archived. It seems to be primarily about Albania.[2][3] Albania and Iran are not currently getting along; they severed diplomatic relations in 2022. This seems to be from an anti-Albania organization. Looks like an ordinary extremist site. Unclear why the US DOJ is involved with that one. Doesn't seem to involve the US directly.

One of the other sites is associated with the Stryker cyber attack, so that shutdown makes sense.
