Call for ending cyber operations in Israel and Palestine

CyberPeace Institute

The CyberPeace Institute condemns the killing and abduction of civilians by Hamas, and calls for the immediate release of persons held by Hamas. The CyberPeace Institute also condemns unrestrained and indiscriminate attacks by Israel which are leading to the deaths and suffering of civilians in Gaza.

We call upon all parties to the conflict to spare civilians, civilian objects and infrastructure which are ensuring the delivery of essential services, from attacks including cyberattacks and dissemination of harmful content.

The CyberPeace Institute is calling for restraint in the use of cyber, as well as in other attacks. Harm to civilians, civilian objects and infrastructure which are ensuring the delivery of essential services must be avoided.

The CyberPeace Institute calls on all parties to respect their obligations under international humanitarian law (IHL). Civilians and other protected persons must be respected and protected at all times.
