The NoName057(16) group claims to have launched a coordinated series of distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks that successfully took down several key infrastructure and corporate targets in Israel. The attacks appear to be part of a targeted campaign dubbed “#OpIsrael.” The latest list of alleged victims posted by the group includes:
-
Bezeq (🇮🇱): An Israeli telecommunications provider, with the attack specifically taking down its authorization portal.
-
Mekorot (🇮🇱): The national water company of Israel and the country’s primary agency for water management.
-
Kavim (🇮🇱): A major Israeli bus company providing public transportation services.
-
E.M.I.T. Aviation (🇮🇱): An Israeli company specializing in the development and production of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems.
According to the actor and provided server check reports, the attacks successfully overwhelmed the targets’ network resources and forced the sites offline. The resulting impact includes:
-
Complete website inaccessibility and downtime
-
Server connection timeouts (ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT)
-
Authorization portal failures (401 Authorization Required)
-
Denial of service errors (403 Forbidden)
