Pegasus spyware victim

On Nov. 8, the Pegasus spyware developed by the Israeli security firm NSO Group was discovered on six Palestinian activists’ phones. Three worked for civil society NGOs that were designated as “terrorist groups” by Israel earlier this month. The United States sanctioned the NSO group last week for disrupting national security and US foreign policy. Earlier this summer, Pegasus was found across the world on the phones of dissidents, journalists and human rights activists. Marco Werman interviews Ubai Aboudi, one of the Palestinian activists revealed yesterday to have had their phones hacked.
