Jabaroot dumps Morocco data
A hacker collective called Jabaroot published what it says are the identities and personal details of 70,381 Moroccan security and intelligence agents, including 21 senior officials, on its Telegram channel on August 25, 2026.

teleSUR says the data include names, dates of birth and identification numbers, and it identifies Abdellatif Hammouchi as heading both the General Directorate of National Security (DGSN) and the General Directorate for Territorial Surveillance (DGST).
Diari ARA says the leak involves databases allegedly containing confidential information from Morocco’s General Directorate of National Security and the General Directorate of Territorial Surveillance, with names, birth dates, identification numbers, rank, and other personal data.
The Spanish outlet El Confidencial is cited by Diari ARA as reporting that several former Moroccan intelligence agents validated the information, while also noting it had not been confirmed by any official channel.
Ceuta retaliation and accusations
Jabaroot framed the disclosure as a “gift to Europe, and in particular, to Spain” in the context of tension between Madrid and Rabat over the arrival of migrants in Ceuta, according to Diari ARA.
teleSUR reports that Jabaroot described the disclosure as “momentous for Europe, and for Spain in particular,” and asserted that the migration of Moroccans to Europe “is an official Moroccan plan.”
Diari ARA says the hackers claim they have evidence of orders directed at Moroccan agents that allegedly orchestrated the events in Ceuta, which the Moncloa described as “an attack on Spanish territorial integrity and sovereignty.”
teleSUR adds that Jabaroot claims to possess information about agents allegedly involved in an operation in Ceuta and says it obtained copies of mission orders for agents who traveled to Castillejos on July 30.
Spain weighs security risk
Antena 3 quotes former CNI head Jorge Dezcallar saying, “70,000 seems too many. Morocco does not have 70,000 intelligence agents,” while adding that he believes the lists of collaborators could enlarge the figure.

Antena 3 also has Dezcallar say the claim that what happened in Ceuta “was planned by a couple of royal advisers and by the head of the Interior Intelligence Service, Abdellatif Hammouchi” is “a very serious claim and accusation.”
Demócrata reports that Spanish services have been investigating since Monday a data leak of about 70,000 members of Morocco’s security apparatus and consider the documents “true” in a first phase of analysis.
Demócrata says the Spanish services are cross-checking identities with information they already have to verify whether any of the people are linked to previous operations, contacts, or investigations, and it quotes a Spanish security agency source explaining the goal is to know if there may be “any infiltrated agent in our services as a source, translator or, in a very, very hypothetical case, as a colleague [agent]”.
