A widespread hacker attack on Israeli news and media outlets has rendered them inaccessible, including its official television network.

Iran PressMiddle East: Cyber-attacks have become a powerful and low-cost option for war, and cyber-attacks by various groups on the Israeli regime's infrastructure and access to and dissemination of vital information have led to the collapse of the regime's hollow cyber greatness.

Israel TV Channel 9, Channel 11, and Channel 3 are three major Israeli media websites that have been taken down due to cyber-attacks.

An Iraqi hacker group called Fariq al-Tahereh is said to have carried out this large-scale operation.

Prior to the cyber-attack, social networks close to Iraqi resistance groups showed up at 1:02; a code indicating that something new was about to happen at this hour; the hour, according to Iraqi activists, was the exact moment of the martyrdom of  Lieutenant General Qasem Soleimani and Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, the victorious commanders of the Resistance Front near Baghdad Airport.

Hebrew-language sources say that the timing of the attack at the exact time of the martyrdom of Lieutenant General Soleimani and Abu Mahdi al-Mohandis has a clear message.
