An Israeli newspaper, The Jerusalem Post, was hacked on Monday, the anniversary of the killing of top Iranian general, Qassem Soleimani, indicating it was the work of pro-regime forces who temporarily disfigured the website’s homepage and Twitter account.

The website featured a menacing message Monday morning saying, “We are close to you where you do not think about it,” in English and Hebrew, accompanied by an image of Israeli Dimona nuclear facility under a ballistic missile attack fired from a hand wearing a ring similar to that of Soleimani. When the general was blown to bits by a U.S. targeted attack, his remains were identified by the oversized red-stoned ring.
