Vojske so infrastrukturo svojih nasprotnikov skozi tisočletja poskušale ohromiti z zastrupljanjem vodnjakov, požiganjem mostov ali, v zadnjem času, napadi na železnice, rafinerije in letališča. V vojni, ki se trenutno odvija na Bližnjem vzhodu, je na seznam tarč dodan še en objekt: podatkovni centri.

U ratu koji se sada odvija širom Bliskog istoka, dodat je još jedan cilj: data centri. U napadima dronova oštećena su tri objekta kojim upravlja Amazon.com Inc. u Ujedinjenim Arapskim Emiratima (UAE) i Bahreinu.
