New Hacker Group Threatens Israel With Cyberattacks

As the fight between Israel and Hamas turned digital, a hacking collective called Lionheart announced that they would be going after anyone who talks about Palestinian children's casualties. This indicates a powerful combination of cyberwarfare and ideological warfare.

The reasons for the actions of Lionheart Hackers are yet unclear. Nevertheless, their statement makes it evident that they support Palestinian interests in the ongoing confrontation between Israel and Palestine. The cyber conflict is becoming more complex in terms of geopolitics due to the presence of state-sponsored entities like Iran and Hezbollah, which makes it difficult to distinguish between cyber and conventional warfare.

The manifesto of the hackers and their Telegram channel is in Russian language, a fact which adds a layer of doubts of third-party involvement alongside Iran.

The complex clash where traditional warfare meets internet battlefields takes on a new dimension with the advent of Lionheart Hackers. Gaza's Health Ministry recently released a startling death toll among Palestinians, claiming numbers that keep rising despite the Israel-Hamas conflict.

The sobering figures demonstrate the human cost of the battle, with women and children among the civilian casualties of the bloodshed. This is also the reason Lionheart Hackers choose to target Israel. 

Furthermore, the precise nature and scope of the targets of the alleged impending attacks by Lionheart Hackers are unknown, which has led to conjecture about their affiliation and motivation. Although the group supports Palestinian interests, further research is necessary to fully understand the complexities of its relationships and goals.
