00:27Iran-linked hacker group
00:29Handala has claimed a massive breach of former Israeli military chief Herzi Halevi's personal
00:36device. The group says it accessed nearly 19,000 files over several years, including
00:43photos, videos, documents, and strategic maps. Handala released dozens of samples as proof,
00:50framing the attack as psychological warfare aimed at Israel's security elite. Leaked materials
00:58reportedly include personal family photos, ID cards, and sensitive military and diplomatic
01:04images, including meetings with Jordanian and Qatari officials. The hackers warned,
01:10this is just the beginning, promising more leaks in the coming days. Israeli officials have yet
01:17to confirm the breach or authenticate the materials. Cybersecurity experts suggest the attack likely
01:24targeted personal devices via phishing or social engineering, not Israel's core military networks.
01:31This fits a recent pattern. Handala has targeted multiple Israeli and US-linked officials in recent
01:38months, focusing on personal emails and devices to create embarrassment and exert psychological
01:45pressure. The timing is significant, coming amid the US-Iran ceasefire and rising tensions in the
01:52region. Analysts warn these cyber operations could escalate into further public confrontations. As the
02:00story unfolds, Handala may release additional files, keeping Israel and its allies on high alert.
02:07This latest breach highlights the growing power of cyber warfare and the vulnerabilities of even the
02:14most senior officials.
