US troops warned directly? Handala hackers issue ‘welcome to hell’ war warning after US strikes Iran

An Iran-linked hacker group, Handala, has issued a dramatic warning to the United States amid escalating tensions in the Middle East. The group claimed that any new military action against Iran would trigger a "strong and decisive" response and warned that "missiles are ready to launch." In one of its most provocative statements yet, Handala urged U.S. Marines to contact their families and "say goodbye," while threatening that future strikes would be "bitter." The warning comes as the confrontation between Washington and Tehran expands beyond the battlefield into the cyber domain. Handala has previously claimed responsibility for cyber operations targeting American and Israeli interests and recently alleged it possesses sensitive information related to U.S. military personnel and facilities across the region.
