Stryker, a medical technology company that makes a variety of products, including surgical tools and medical implants, announced Wednesday that it was hit by a cyberattack.<\/p>\n

And while the company has provided few details about the extent of the attack, a pro-Iran hacking group, Handala, is claiming responsibility, saying in a post on X that it executed the cyberattack “in retaliation” for the ongoing war in the region.<\/p>\n

The hacking group claimed that in the cyberattack, “over 200,000 systems, servers, and mobile devices have been wiped and 50 terabytes of critical data have been extracted.”<\/p>\n

Stryker, the Kalamazoo, Michigan-based company, said in a statement Wednesday that it has “no indication of ransomware or malware and believe the incident is contained.”<\/p>\n

The company did note that it was “experiencing a global network disruption to our Microsoft environment.”<\/p>\n

“Our teams are working rapidly to understand the impact of the attack on our systems,” Stryker said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The company did not provide further details but assured “continuity measures in place to continue to support our customers and partners.”<\/p>\n

The hacking group claimed in its statement that the deadly strike on a girls’ elementary school in Iran was in part the motivation behind the cyberattack.<\/p>\n

The group posted that the attack was “in retaliation for the brutal attack on the Minab school and in response to ongoing cyber assaults against the infrastructure.”<\/p>\n

Local officials say 168 people were killed in a Feb. 28 strike, in which several buildings connected to Iran\u2019s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps were destroyed along with a nearby building housing a school for girls.<\/p>\n

It has not been determined who was behind the strike, though the U.S. military was striking targets<\/a> in Iran in the area near the school, people familiar with the findings told ABC News. An investigation is ongoing.<\/p>\n

U.S. officials have not immediately commented on the cyberattack.<\/p>\n
