No One Was Immune: Israel Police Pegasus Surveillance List Revealed

Tomer Ganon
Calcalist (C Tech), Feb. 7, 2022

“Special operations members of the police’s cyber-SIGINT unit have been penetrating the phones of citizens secretly and without judicial warrants…”
Calcalist can reveal for the first time a list of dozens of citizens who were targeted by Israel Police, having their phones hacked by NSO spyware and their personal information swiped and filed away. The surveillance was conducted to phish for intelligence even before any investigation had been opened against the targets, and without judicial warrants. Israel Police said in response that its people are “cooperating with the Attorney General of Israel’s examination team.”
 The list which reached Calcalist includes the CEOs of the ministries of transport, finance and justice at the time, Keren Turner, Shai Babad and Emi Palmor, respectively. It also includes leaders of the protests organized by disability rights groups and Israelis of Ethiopian descent, as well as mayors Miriam Feirberg of Netanya, Yoram Shimon of Mevaseret Zion, Yaakov Peretz of Kiryat Ata and Moti Sasson of Holon. In addition, spyware was installed on the phone of witnesses and some of those interrogated as part of Case 4000 and those involving communication conglomerate Bezeq for which former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is also standing trial.
