The group published on its website several photos of Patel that do not appear to have previously been made public, according to an NBC News review through several reverse-image searches. The hacked emails appear to have been sent from or to a personal Gmail account that is listed as belonging to Patel in at least one public government document. Gmail didn’t respond to a request for comment.

All of the emails predate Patel’s work with the Trump administration, and metadata from the files indicate they were hacked before the war began. The emails Handala posted are curated and are arranged into folders last modified on May 21, 2025. Most of the emails are dated between 2010 and 2012, and the most recent is a plane ticket receipt from 2022.
