Recently International medias reported that the Israel’s Cyber Team successfully hacked Iran’s Gas Distribution System that has caused shutting down of the entire Iran’s civilian gas pumps.
This cyber attack caused halting of Iran’s entire 4,300 fuel distribution stations and witnessed long queues at the gas stations. It was also created widespread chaos and traffic jams across the country.
Apart from hacking the entire fuel distribution system, Israel cyber team also hacked Iran’s fuel storage tanks, accessed secret data on international oil sales that could literally reveal how Iranian government was breaching of international sanctions.
Latest media reports are indicating that Iran is still finding difficulty in rectifying the malfunction of the entire Iran’s gas distribution system and it will take some more days to resolve it’s technical problems completely.
Israel carried out this cyber attack just after Iran based Black Shadow cyber group hacked Israeli LGBTQ dating site, accessed files at a network of medical clinics, obtaining personal information on 1.5 million Israelis.
Iran’s Black Shadow group then released full database of the Atraf website’s personal user’s information. Atraf is a popular Tel Aviv-based LGBT website and app that offers a geo-located dating service and a nightlife index which are considered a pivotal part of it.
This is the first time Israel’s cyber team used a new trend of cyber attack against Iran’s soft target. Earlier Israel’s cyber team was mainly targeting on Iran’s nuclear and defense installations to curtail their defense and nuclear bomb development capabilities.
The latest cyber attacks on Iran’s softer targets are now causing considerable hardship for the Iranian people.
As long as Iran tries to develop nuclear bomb, then the cyber attack on military and nuclear installations and hacking hacking of soft target will continue between Iran and Israel.
Recently some of the U.S. Officials alleged that Iran’s black shadow cyber group tried to hack U.S.’s hospital systems and other important infrastructure systems.
Iran Black shadow cyber group tried the same at a time when U.S. and the other world powers are going to resume negotiations with Iran for a possible nuclear deal.
Apart from carrying out Cyber attack on Iran’s Gas Distribution System, Israel is now considering of carrying out a massive air attack on Iran’s underground Nuclear plant to stop Iran to producing nuclear bomb.
To achieve their goal, Israel government has already allocated about 1.5 billion dollars to acquire advanced fighter aircrafts, intelligence gathering drones and many mother advanced armaments.
U.S. also is now helping Israel to destroy Iran’s important nuclear power station that has been built in the underground bunker. United States recently carried out a test of a new 5000 pound bunker buster bomb called “GBU-72 Advanced 5K Penetrator”.
This particular 5,000-pound bomb can be loaded on U.S.-Israel’s heavy duty bombers and the same can be utilized for destroying those Iran’s Nuclear facilities that were built approximately 8 meters underground and protected by a concrete wall 2.5 meters thick.
Iran’s Natanz nuclear facilities is located near Natanz, the capital city of Natanz County, Isfahan Province. This particular plant is a hardened “Fuel Enrichment Plant (FEP)” and the same is an important Nuclear facilities of Iran’s advanced nuclear programme.
Considering the relentless military threat, economic sanction and the cyber threat Iran has been facing from from Israel and U.S., it is better for Iran to stop their attempt to produce nuclear bomb and co-operate with world communities to create a peaceful world in future.
