Sure, like I said, it can be done with iptables. But:

1. Why do we have firewalld then? It seems to me that such a trivial thing 
should be configurable with firewalld.

2. The command that I tried

firewall-cmd --permanent --add-rich-rule="rule family='ipv4' protocol 
value="tcp" destination address='aa.bb.0.0/16' reject"

didn't put anything in iptables, i.e. iptables --list shows no rules. On 
the other hand, I do have this reject rule in /etc/firewalld/zones/
FedoraWorkstation.xml. 

Under the hood, by default, firewalld uses the newer nftables instead of 
iptables. I don't know how these two interact, if anything maybe we should 
do this in nftables.
