Israel-Iran Cyberwar Rages As Netanyahu, Khamenei Go After Alleged Cross-Espionage | Spotlight | N18G

Though bombs and missiles between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu-led Israel and Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei-led Iran have paused, the war has quietly shifted into the digital realm. A relentless shadow conflict now unfolds in cyberspace, with hackers launching precision attacks, espionage, and disinformation campaigns. Just after Israel’s surprise air raids on Iran in June, Iranian operatives retaliated with waves of malicious texts targeting Israeli officials, signaling that the cyber battle rages on despite the ceasefire. This decade-long cyber rivalry has seen landmark incidents like the Stuxnet virus sabotaging Iran’s nuclear program, and recent Iranian attacks disrupting Israeli defense supply chains and financial institutions. Iranian hackers have impersonated officials, attempted multi-million-dollar thefts, and leaked sensitive Israeli data onto the dark web. Israel has struck back by crippling parts of Iran’s air defences and mapping key military and nuclear figures for targeted operations.
