The Pegasus spyware program, which a private Israeli company developed, coordinates directly with the Israeli government and penetrates smartphones with a virus to spy on photos, conversations, and documents inside the phone.

A report published by the New York Times newspaper, last Saturday, revealed that "Israel" secretly allowed a group of digital monitoring companies to work for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The spyware company was founded by people who previously worked in Unit 8200, one of the most powerful units of Israeli intelligence, which spies on institutions and individuals around the world.

Pegasus spied on at least 189 journalists, 85 human rights activists, and 14 heads of state. The NSO Group stated that it sold the Pegasus program to more than 40 states with the approval of the Israeli authorities.
