Nazareth - Saba:
Credit card payments across Israel were halted on Sunday due to a cyber attack, the second of its kind in two weeks.
The Zionist newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth said: "For the second time in two weeks, a cyber attack disrupted credit card services in Israel."
On October 29, Globes reported that Shafa, a company operating in the field of automated banking services limited, which provides communications between various payment settlement companies for credit card transactions, suffered interruptions that prevented the settlement of payments.
Last month, hackers hacked into sports websites in the usurping entity, including those of large clubs and basketball, handball, and swimming federations, and put up a picture of Abu Obeida, spokesman for the Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas.
The spokesman for the Qassam Brigades, Abu Obeida, had said in a televised speech on the occasion of the first anniversary of the start of the battle of "Al-Aqsa flood" on the seventh of last October: "We call for the widest cyber attack on the Zionist entity from all lovers of the Palestinian people and the resistance of electronic warfare experts."
