@violetblue Why would an Iranian hacking team be calling itself Handala:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handala

Handala is some sort of Palestinian cartoon character. It is not Iranian. When an Iranian hacking group named after a Palestinian cartoon mascot does something incredibly offensive, like break dialysis equipment all across the world, during a conflict I can't help but think that 'Handala' is really Israel hiding behind a keyboard.
