The group published a trove of footage of the ex-general, who stepped down last year, including dozens of photos and videos showing Halevi touring military bases, meeting with pilots, and holding briefings and meetings, which had previously not been disclosed to the public.
Handala on its website said that it had “for years… silently and invisibly been right inside the system” of Halevi, and during that time collected “more than 19,000 confidential images and videos from the most secret meetings.”
“All your top-secret facilities, crisis rooms, maps, and even the tiniest details of your command centers have long been like an open book to us,” the group said.
The hackers also asserted that their archive goes beyond documents, containing live recordings from sensitive operational environments, including “crisis rooms” and other restricted facilities, during the Israeli genocidal war on Gaza.
Ahram Online did not verify the authenticity of the materials, but samples published online feature images and videos from Halevi’s tenure as chief of staff, including visits to air force installations and participation in senior-level discussions.
Alleged leaks suggest deep, real-time tactical integration between the Israeli army and the US military Central Command (CENTCOM), including visuals of Israeli pilots training on US aircraft carriers, including USS George Bush.
It is not the first time that Handala has published the contents from the devices of Israeli officials.
Handala has claimed to have hacked the phones of former prime minister Naftali Bennett, former justice minister Ayelet Shaked, and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s chief of staff, Tzachi Braverman.
The group has most recently breached the personal email account of FBI Director Kash Patel and published over 300 emails, personal photographs, and a resume taken from Patel's account.
