The official website of the Embassy of India in Israel (indembassy.co.il) has been hacked and defaced by Anonymous hacker AnonGhost. The attack took place on Monday at around 4:30 UTC. 

The hacker defaced the website with the following message: “Mauritania Attacker Was here ^_^ Pakistan Zindabad Big Love From Mauritania.”

As HackRead highlights, this message might indicate that there’s a collaboration between the Mauritanian and Pakistani hacktivists.

At the time of writing, the hacker’s message has been removed by the website’s administrators. Currently, the site of the embassy is offline.

A mirror of the defacement is available here.

AnonGhost has been involved in several Anonymous operations, including the recent OpPetrol, UpUSA and OpIsrael, the success of which has been questioned by numerous experts.
