Israeli hacker crashes Anonymous website

Israeli hackers have hit back hard in response to the cyber attack against Israel.

An Israeli hacker, Dog_Fts, has crashed the Anonymous website's anti-Israel campaign, OpIsrael, embarrassing the organization. The site said that it was down until further notice.

Yesterday, Anonymous led a cyber attack against Israel. Although some government offices reported that they were under cyber attack, the main victims were small sites with lower levels of security. The Ministry of Finance said that government sites were under attack, a day after Anonymous claimed that its members had hacked 19,000 Israeli Facebook accounts, as well as several state websites.

Israeli hackers responded in kind, hacking pro-Palestinian websites.
