An Iran-linked hacker group called Handala Hack Team has publicly announced a $50 million bounty for eliminating Trump and Netanyahu, according to reporting from iBTimes. The group, formally attributed to Iran's Ministry of Intelligence by the US Department of Justice in March 2026, recently hacked FBI Director Kash Patel's personal email and published documents from it — the bounty appears to be a deliberate escalation in response to US enforcement action. The article is well-sourced with DOJ confirmation, threat intelligence backing, and documented prior bounties, though it frames the bounty as a state-level threat rather than examining whether such online announcements translate to operational risk.
