The hacker group “Mr. Hamza” has claimed responsibility for an operation targeting the Egyptian state, announcing plans to leak sensitive information about the Egyptian army. According to their statement, this action is in collaboration with the Emorocco Hacktivists and is intended as a response to President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi’s policies in the Middle East.

The group specifically criticized President Sisi for two key issues. First, they condemned his decision to close Egypt’s border with Gaza, preventing Egyptians from supporting Palestinians during the ongoing conflict. Second, they expressed opposition to Egypt’s support of the Polisario Front, which Mr. Hamza refers to as a “fictitious republic,” in its dispute with Morocco.

Mr. Hamza stated that this cyber operation serves as a warning to the Egyptian government, emphasizing that they do not intend to target or harm the Egyptian people. They have also leaked some sensitive data related to the Egyptian military as part of this campaign.

The Group Claims  for DDoS Attack on Egyptian Organization for Industrialization

The hacker group,” in collaboration with Emorocco Hacktivists, has claimed responsibility for a DDoS attack on the Egyptian Organization for Industrialization (AOI). The AOI, which is responsible for military equipment production and providing consulting services in defense and technology, was targeted in what the group described as a response to Egypt’s state policies.

According to Mr. Hamza’s latest statement, this attack followed criticism they received, though they emphasized that their actions are not aimed at the Egyptian people but at the policies of the state. The group warned that any further criticism of their activities would result in more attacks on government websites or banks, reiterating that their cyber operations are aimed solely at the state’s policies.

These claims have yet to be independently verified, and the extent of the data breach or the full impact on the Egyptian military remains unclear. The Egyptian government has not yet responded to the allegations.
