Iran Press/ Middle East: Various websites, including those of Mossad and so-called Israel's National Insurance Institute, which is responsible for the social security of the Zionist settlers, were knocked offline due to a widespread cyber attack by Anonymous Sudan, the Hebrew-language Maariv daily newspaper reported on Tuesday.
“The (Monday) attack is in preparation for a much more significant [cyber] attack,” the group wrote on its Telegram channel.
The development came only two days after the group targeted the websites of a major airport port as well as the largest supplier of electrical power across the occupied territories in a massive cyber attack.
Hebrew-language media outlets reported at the time that the Anonymous Sudan hacker group took down the websites of Ben Gurion International Airport and Israel Electric Corporation (IEC) on Saturday.
The reports added that the Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, during which websites are targeted by overwhelming their servers with too many requests to connect, made the websites unavailable for a while before they were brought back into service.
“We have not forgotten our Eid gift for Israel. There will be a major [cyber] attack, and it will bring down a large part of the infrastructure in Israel. We will attack at any moment,” the group wrote on its Telegram channel.
Also, an Indonesian hacker group carried out a massive cyber attack against a number of the Zionist regime's websites last week, including those of the ministries of foreign affairs, education, and health.
The Jerusalem Post newspaper reported that the group, calling itself VulzSecTeam, announced on April 17 that it had managed to break into the websites of the Zionist regime's education, health, and foreign ministries, as well as police and bus and train companies in recent days, and took them down.
