The Iranian computer-hacking group “Moses Staff” on Thursday published video clips taken from security cameras at the site of one of Wednesday’s attacks in Jerusalem, according to reports from Hebrew media.

The group published the video clips on the Telegram messaging app that captured the moment of the bomb explosion at a bus stop at the city’s entrance.

One of the videos was accompanied by a caption in Hebrew that said, “For a long time we have [had] control over all your activities, step by step and moment by moment.”

Wednesday’s twin attacks in Jerusalem killed one and injured 19.

The group has previously published threats against Israel. It even distributed photos about a year ago that were allegedly taken at Defense Minister Benny Gantz’s home. The group has also published details of Israeli soldiers, personal documents from Israeli companies and published leaks and details of hundreds of thousands of Israelis, according to Ynet.

The leaks the hacker group published were also accompanied by aggressive texts. One said, “We will follow you where you don’t think we will. This is just the beginning.”

Another message, referencing Gantz, said, “We know all your decisions and we will hit where you don’t think. We have secret documents from the Defense Ministry and of Benny Gantz. We have news, reports, operational maps and information about your units and forces. We will publish this information to inform the whole world of your crimes.”
