A hacker group calling itself "Open Hands" continued to publish personal data of the head of the Israeli Foreign Intelligence Service (Mossad) David Barnea.
And the newspaper "Yediot Aharonot" said today, Saturday, that the hackers - suspected of being Iranians - published through their channel on the Telegram application, a tax form for the head of the Mossad dating back to the year 2020 and containing information about his salary, savings and pension.
The newspaper stated that this publication contradicts the claims of Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett's office that the materials in the possession of "Open Hands" are only old.
And "Open Hands", in its first appearance, last Wednesday, published pictures and personal information about Barnea - who has headed the Mossad since June 1, 2021 - according to what was reported by "Noor News" agency, which is close to the authority in Iran.
A video clip, broadcast by the hackers on Telegram, showed personal photos of the Mossad chief, requested airline tickets, tax documents for him and his family members, and a satellite image of what is claimed to be his private home in central Israel.
But Tel Aviv downplayed the importance of the leaked documents, and the Prime Minister's Office denied that this data had been seized from Barnea's personal phone, and said that the talk was about "old data", according to what was reported by the official Israeli "Kan" channel.
