Israeli spyware allegedly used to target Pakistani officials’ phones
NSO Group malware may have been used to access WhatsApp messages for ‘state-on-state’ espionage
The mobile phones of at least two dozen Pakistani government officials were allegedly targeted earlier this year with technology owned by the Israeli spyware company NSO Group, the Guardian has learned.
Scores of Pakistani senior defence and intelligence officials were among those who could have been compromised, according to sources familiar with the matter who spoke on the condition of anonymity.
