ALBAWABA - Activists on social media circulated a video showing the moment an Egyptian hacker managed to hack into the Israeli Channel 14 live broadcast. But what really happened?
According to the clip, the guests suddenly vanished from the screen, replaced by the Egyptian national anthem and flag, in addition to a special support message for Palestinians.
