Data Centers Are Military Targets Now
With militaries increasingly relying on artificial intelligence, data centers have emerged as new targets for strikes.

Sam Biddle, March 20 2026,

"The motive behind the attack, according to Iranian state television, was not to block people from ordering groceries or posting to social media, but rather to highlight 'the role of these centers in supporting the enemy’s military and intelligence activities.' Though only #Amazon’s centers are known to have come under fire, a March 11 tweet from the quasi-official Tasnim News Agency listed dozens of regional facilities, including data centers owned by #Microsoft, #Google and others, deemed '#EnemyTechnologyInfrastructure' suitable for targeting.
It’s unclear if the #AmazonDataCenters struck by Iranian drone strikes are used for military purposes or civilian purposes, or both. And it’s unknown if the attacks in any way hindered the militaries of the U.S., Israel, or their allies in the Gulf from using AI or other cloud-based services in their war efforts. But with Amazon, Google, and even Facebook parent company #Meta are all eager partners of the #Pentagon that augment the destructive power of the United States in Iran and elsewhere, server farms may now have the same status as factories building #bombs and #warplanes."
