Libyan Ministry of Education Allegedly Breached, Students' IDs and Photos Threatened With Release
A threat actor using the alias EvaN47 claims to have breached the Libyan Ministry of Education (moe.gov.ly) and is threatening to publish a 287GB dataset of students' data if the ministry does not make contact. Per the post, it includes all secondary-education completion certificates for students across Libya, students' national ID numbers, personal photos, passport photos, and other official documents. The sample thumbnails include students' facial photographs and identity documents; because this involves minors' personal data, no samples are reproduced or hosted here. This is the same actor and contact channel behind a recent breach claim against the Libyan Civil Aviation Authority. The claim is unverified.

⚠Potential impact
The dataset reportedly links students' names and national ID numbers to their photos, passport photos, and education certificates. Because secondary-education students in Libya include minors, this is child-related personal data, and its exposure would create lasting risks of identity theft, fraud, and targeting, with national ID numbers and biometric photos that cannot be reset. The actor threatens to publish the data if no contact is made. The sample thumbnails are shown here only in redacted form, and no identifiers or contact channel are reproduced. The claim is unverified.

UnverifiedThe actor posted category descriptions, sample thumbnails, and a contact channel, and threatens publication if not contacted. No sample records, identifiers, student photos, or the contact channel are reproduced here. This matches the same actor and contact seen in a recent claim against the Libyan Civil Aviation Authority. The claim is unverified and the Libyan Ministry of Education has not publicly addressed it.
