Sefid Flood

Sefid Flood is an Iranian-linked influence operation persona documented by researchers in 2024, focused on online disinformation and narrative amplification targeting Israeli and Western audiences during and after the Gaza conflict. The group operates networks of fake social media accounts and websites to spread pro-Iranian narratives, amplify claims of Iranian-linked cyberattacks, and undermine Israeli public morale. Sefid Flood activity reflects Iran's broader investment in cyber-enabled influence operations that combine real hacking claims with coordinated online messaging to maximize psychological impact.
