The Justice Ministry of Israel is actively investigating a cybersecurity breach after a hacker group, identifying itself as Anonymous for Justice and protesting against the war in Gaza, claimed to have accessed the ministry's servers.

The group alleges to have extracted nearly 300 gigabytes of data, intending to disrupt Israeli operations until the conflict in Gaza concludes.

Among the published materials are what the group describes as confidential legal documents, including drafts of bilateral agreements and contracts. The authenticity of these documents has not been independently confirmed.

No details about the attack are available.

The ministry has responded to these claims by emphasizing that its operations continue without interruption, suggesting prior preparation for such cyber threats.
