On the same day that Iran and Israel traded missile strikes in their most serious exchange since the April ceasefire, Iranian-linked hacker group Handala posted a series of messages on Telegram claiming it had launched crippling cyberattacks against Israeli military and civilian targets. The claims include “widespread and targeted signal disruption” of Israeli radar systems and a “cyber siege” on the Kfar Yona municipality in central Israel.
The messages opened with “In the name of God, the Breaker of Tyrants” in Arabic. Five minutes later came the main statement: “Today marks the beginning of the end. Handala invites you to witness the most devastating cyberattacks targeting the enemy’s military and vital infrastructure, and this is only the first warning.” The message threatened every country that supports Israel, saying “no land is too distant, no server is safe, and no network is out of reach.”
The group claimed that “at this very moment, the radar systems of the Zionist regime are experiencing widespread and targeted signal disruption by Handala’s team.” Handala then shifted to a governmental target, claiming the Kfar Yona Municipality was “under Handala’s cyber siege, drowning in a storm of digital paralysis and information chaos.”
In a new SOCRadar report published today, the company’s security researchers warn that the radar claim should be treated with caution as the evidence shared so far does not support it, including no proper details posted, and many other specifics shared in the SOCRadar report.
