BREAKING Tomorrow, the U.N. Special Rapporteurs will release a statement announcing the findings of a forensic investigation that concludes that Jeff Bezos’s phone was likely compromised by a Saudi hacking effort by SuzanneMSmalley

WASHINGTON — United Nations officials have asked the government of Saudi Arabia to explain the apparent hack of a cellphone belonging to Amazon CEO and Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos, a source familiar with the matter told Yahoo News.

Shortly after the October 2018 killing of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi, Bezos skipped a planned appearance at an investment conference that Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman was hosting in Saudi Arabia. A few months later, Bezos announced that the National Enquirer had obtained naked pictures of him.

Spyware similar to the type that is believed to have been used to infect Bezos' phone was previously deployed by the Saudis to hack into the phone of Saudi dissident Omar Abdulaziz, who is suing NSO Group, the Israeli maker of the Pegasus spyware. Abdulaziz has alleged that the Saudis hacked into his phone using Pegasus weeks before Khashoggi was killed. Abdulaziz had been working with Khashoggi on sensitive projects targeting Saudi disinformation campaigns in the months before the killing.
