What it is
Conquerors Electronic Army operates under the “Wa’d al-Akhira” banner and has claimed multiple attacks against Israeli targets, including civil emergency alerting and healthcare sectors, utilizing rented stresser infrastructure and CheckHost proof-of-disruption links. The group has embedded links to a UK-registered charity in their operations, suggesting a potential disruption attempt rather than solely an information operation. Security company Radware identified Conquerors Electronic Army as one of the primary actors behind a series of DDoS attacks targeting government entities in the Middle East. Their activities indicate a focus on both disruptive and influence operations.
