Iranian hacker group Handala publishes details of Israeli Unit 9900 officers —— The Iranian hacker collective Handala announced today that it has released the personal details of 50 senior officers from Unit 9900, the Israeli military intelligence (Aman) unit specializing in geospatial intelligence. According to Handala, the leak is the result of months of surveillance and complex cyber operations. Unit 9900 is known for using drone imagery, satellite photos, and urban surveillance cameras to produce detailed 3D maps, which have reportedly supported targeted operations, including airstrikes and assassinations of Resistance Axis commanders. Handala described the release as a historic blow to Israeli security and a warning to all actors in the information warfare arena. "The widespread exposure of these officers’ identities is more than just an end to the myth of the Zionist regime’s invulnerability, it is a clear warning to all actors in the information warfare arena: the era of darkness and secrecy is over. From now on, no criminal will remain hidden under the illusion of Zionist security," the statement read. The group stated that the operation demonstrates that no Israeli officer involved in military operations can remain hidden, and it emphasized that future acts of aggression will be met with retaliation by Resistance fighters and cyber operatives. Handala concluded its statement with a message that “the end is near” and urged observers to await its next move.
