The new findings followed NSO’s blacklisting last week by the US
commerce department amid allegations its spyware targeted journalists, rights activists and government officials in several countries.
London-based Amnesty and Toronto’s Citizen Lab said they had independently confirmed that Pegasus had been used to hack the Palestinian activists’ phones, after Front Line Defenders, an international rights group, began collecting data in October about the suspected hacking.Asked about the allegations, NSO said: “As we stated in the past, NSO Group does not operate the products itself ... and we are not privy to the details of individuals monitored.
Stopping short of blaming Israel for the alleged hacking, some of the groups whose workers were said to have been targeted demanded an international investigation.
