An unknown group calling themselves "Open Hands" has announced an intelligence mission in a short clip exposing a series of documents belonging to the head of the Israeli occupation Mossad, David Barnea.

According to the Iranian agency Noor News, the clip contains a set of confidential documents, personal information, and financial documents of Barnea, which are currently being analyzed by several security experts affiliated with the group.

The agency said the leaked information came as a result of collecting classified information from senior Israeli officials in sensitive security and military agencies.

Who are "Open Hands"?

The work of this intelligence team dates back to 2011 when multinational security experts were hired to oversee and monitor sensitive Israeli institutions, as well as predict the future of power in "Israel".

In particular, "Open Hands" carried out a series of synthetic intelligence operations to supervise potential leaders of the Israeli occupation military security institutions, according to Noor News.

The Iranian agency revealed that the latest targeted official was Barnea.

According to the released clip, the beginning of the monitoring process for Barnea - along with several other high-ranking Mossad officials at the time, whose names have not been released as potential heads of this organization - dates back to 2014.

In the video clip, the "Open Hands" group presented Barnea's plane ticket to Copenhagen, revealing that he left the occupied Palestinian territories during the war on Gaza in 2014.

Barnea used his wife as a tax evasion tool 

The other part of the clip features Barnea's personal photos and identity, which shows the extent to which the intelligence group has monitored the Israeli official's personal life.

In addition, the intelligence group presented a tax notice for Barnea's wife when late on paying taxes, revealing that Barnea used his wife as a tool to evade taxes.

Noor News considered that the information published by this group is only part of the large data set that this intelligence team possesses about the security and military officials of the Israeli occupation.
