About Team_Azrael.

Team Azrael, Angel of Death is a pro-Pakistan/pro-Palestine hacktivist group, documented in open sources (Cyble, Radware) as a participant in the anti-India #OpIndia campaign, including a claimed attack on a Rajasthan state government mail server. On this forum the group operates a staff/administrator persona (“From Hell”). Its posts are ideologically framed data leaks and doxing targeting India: tax-department and government-employee records, Indian student data, named individuals, and defense-adjacent material (Akash missile cores document), alongside recycled “classified” and conspiracy-themed dumps (FBI Project Bluebook, NATO Gladio, alleged Israeli Mossad data).

The group uses hashtag-driven attribution (#Team_Azrael_Angel_of_Death, #AnonymousBotX, #OpIndia). Leak claims are ideologically motivated and often unverified; authenticity and freshness vary.
