A member of Palestinian rights group Al-Haq alleges that the phones of senior officials at the Palestinian Authority’s foreign ministry were hacked, apparently with Israeli cyber-surveillance firm NSO Group’s Pegasus software.
A senior Palestinian Authority diplomat reached by The Times of Israel cannot confirm Al-Haq’s claim, which was made during a press conference on a report alleging Pegasus was used to hack the phones of at least six Palestinian rights activists.
