Iranian Hackers Targeted Israel’s Radar Systems

Uploaded on 2024-04-17 in NEWS-Cybersecurity News, INTELLIGENCE-Hot Spots-Iran, FREE TO VIEW, TECHNOLOGY--Hackers

Handala, an Iranian cyber hacking group, known for cyber attacks on Israeli government and private sector websites, has claimed it breached Israel's radar systems and sent hundreds of thousands of threatening text messages to Israeli citizens. 

The group has alleged it infiltrated air defence radar systems and delivered thousands of  text messages to Israeli citizens with a deadly message "You have only a few hours to fix the systems." 

The announcement, shared via Telegram, was scant on details but emphasised its significant success in threatening  Israel’s national security. Handala claims to have sent 500,000 text messages to Israeli citizens, urging them to oppose their government and support Iran.

These messages also contained threats to Israel."People will pay for the crimes and foolishness of your leaders. There is no doubt that your leaders will regret these foolish ventures. Evacuate the cities; perhaps you will see less damage!" the message stated. "Do not hesitate and do not sleep; the chance to escape is less than ten seconds, and perhaps your city will be chosen."

Handala is known for targeting Israeli interests and is thought to have conducted numerous cyber attacks on Israeli websites. While the attackers' claims remain unverified by official Israeli sources, security experts in Israel are expressing increasing concern over the possibility of repeated Iranian cyber attacks aimed at critical national infrastructure liker water utilities and telecommunications.
