ISLAMABAD: A group of Iranian hackers, identified as Hanzala has claimed responsibility for breaching the personal phones of former Israeli officials, including former Defence Minister Benny Gantaz and retired IDF Lt. Col. Adi Sabag.

The hackers allege to have obtained and released compromising videos and images, including personal footage of Sabag dancing at social event and Gantz involved in an affair with secretary linked to Prime Minister Netanyahu.

The group further claims the affair involved the leaking of sensitive information related to Netanyahu. Israeli officials have not confirmed the authenticity of the leaked material. This cyber-attack marks an intensification of ongoing cyber tensions between Iran and Israel.

Very creepy that the dude would have a pic of her passport on his phone. Typical weird religious fascist i guess.

I am not sure the passport photo was on his phone. The picture is of the daughter of Gantz who suicided (or "suicided"?). It is difficult to understand what is implied.

The threadreader link in the post contains more info but requires a Twitter account to see photos. So I put some in here. Here is some of the text from Threadreader:

Explain the secret relationship between Adi Sabag and Gallant in the red bed room on the 16th floor of Matcal Tower and the leak of some classified data by Gallant and the online spying of Adi's mobile at that moment?
Explain the secret relationship between Netanyahu's trusted doctor and Benny Gantz at the Savoy Hotel in London and the transfer of some confidential data from Bibi to Gantz by that doctor?
The suicide of Noga, Gantz's daughter, after hearing the story of her father's secret relationship, who was only looking for more information from Bibi!”

Idk why I'm going to bat for the dude, because he's clearly a tool, but my phone probably has a photo of my SO's ID if you dig hard enough

Woulda been something like a "I'm buying plane tickets for our vacation, what's your passport no." kind of situation. Or her: "left my wallet, what's my DL# so I can pay this parking ticket".

Not certain anything is there, but weve been together long enough, I'm not certain it's not there either.

ETA: Maybe also "were going on vacation, state department recommends keeping a separate copy of our passports in case something happens"

I recognize long term relationship is different from mistress, but still
