Hackers reportedly shut down Internet service in Palestine Tuesday. Service was apparently completely shut down in Gaza and partially shut down in the West Bank after hackers unleashed malware on the main ISP in Palestine, Paltel. The Palestinians have alleged that a nation-state could be behind the attacks. They have apparently tied the hacks to their admission on Monday as a member to UNESCO, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization.
