Anonymous’ crashes hundreds of Israeli websites over Gaza air assault

 

Online activist group Anonymous said on Saturday it had downed the websites of dozens of Israeli state agencies and a top bank in protest over the Jewish state’s deadly air assault on Gaza.
The hackers said their operation “OpIsrael” had either damaged or completely erased the sites of more than 650 private and public institutions that included the Bank of Jerusalem — one of the country’s main finance houses.
“Bank of Jerusalem database has been deleted,” the group said in a tweet next to a link to the lender’s non-functioning website.
It also claimed to have briefly downed the foreign ministry website in protest over an alleged Israeli threat to cut the Gaza Strip’s Internet communications.
