00:15A hacker group just published the full identities of 69 Israeli Navy officers and put a $100,000 bounty on
00:25each one.
00:26Today we're in the middle of one of the most explosive cyber operations tied to the Gaza conflict.
00:33An Iran-linked hacking group called Handala has just dropped the names, personal details, and identifying information of 69 Israeli
00:43Navy officers,
00:45the ones they say were directly responsible for intercepting the global Samud flotilla.
00:50Handala didn't just hack and disappear quietly. They went public, fully.
00:56They released the data on their channels, declared each officer a, quote, criminal, and placed a $100,000 bounty on
01:05every single name on that list.
01:07Their statement called the officers responsible for, and I'm translating here, spreading corruption and devastation at sea.
01:16They addressed Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gavir directly, warning him,
01:22You and all the corrupt and bloodthirsty in this cabinet will be pursued by the shadows of the resistance everywhere.
01:30These are not vague threats. This is targeted, personal, and very deliberate.
01:35So what actually happened at sea that triggered all of this?
01:40In mid-May 2026, a massive civilian flotilla, up to 54 vessels carrying international activists and humanitarian aid,
01:50attempted to break Israel's naval blockade of Gaza.
01:54Israeli forces intercepted them in international waters near Cyprus, boarded the ships, and detained somewhere between 300 and 430 activists.
02:05Released detainees described beatings, stress positions, stun grenades, alleged sexual violence, and denial of food and medical care.
02:15Greta Thunberg was among those held.
02:17Ben-Gavir filmed himself at the detention site taunting activists, a move that drew criticism from his own prime minister.
02:26Israel denied the abuse allegations and called the interceptions lawful.
02:31Here's what makes Handala especially dangerous.
02:34This isn't their first time.
02:36They've previously doxxed Israeli air defense engineers, Unit 8200 intelligence members, and defense contractors.
02:44Each time the bounties get bigger, each time the target list gets more specific.
02:51Security experts are sounding the alarm, because publishing personal details of military officers doesn't just create online harassment,
03:00it puts real people and their families in physical danger.
03:04That's the whole point.
03:05And the timing is deliberate.
03:07This drop comes as global scrutiny of the flotilla interception is already at a peak.
03:14Handala is pouring fuel on a fire that's already burning.
03:1869 names, $100,000 each, a hacking group with a proven track record, and a naval incident the world is
03:27still arguing about.
