Who would have thought! Israel's intelligence services sent a text message to Hamas Ismail · Chania, and then secretly installed advanced spy software on his phone to pinpoint his location.
This high technology seems to be an "artifact" in intelligence warfare! It's kind of incredible to think about.
The shadow of the "Pegasus" of the NSO group
This also brings us to NSO Group's "Pegasus" software. This espionage incident found that it has a different relationship with this software. The "Pegasus" software can silently burrow into the smartphone, steal any information, and even the microphone can secretly open the recording.
What's even more incredible is that the software has been used to listen to the phone calls of tens of thousands of people around the world, including government bigwigs, senior officials, and journalists.
The ripple effects after Chania's assassination
Speaking of the fact that after the assassination of Haniah, the United Nations held an emergency meeting in the world, and the already tense relations between the United States and Iran added fuel to the fire.
The Iran leader also spoke, claiming to carry out a direct attack on Israel, this international turmoil, the contest of forces of all parties, the use of strategies, and the calculations behind it, really make people have to think deeply.
The double-edged sword of science and technology, a new chapter in intelligence warfare
Speaking of which, we must not mention our country's own brand technology, many netizens are "joking", if it is a Huawei mobile phone used by Chania, there may not be any subsequent encounters. Even many netizens suggested that the Middle East should be "fully opened" to use Huawei mobile phones.
This incident has really opened a new stage for the application of modern science and technology in intelligence warfare. Israel's intelligence services have been able to successfully implant spyware and pinpoint their location, which is indeed a strength that should not be underestimated.
Technology is like a double-edged sword, it can help but also hurt people. This incident also let the international community know that countries are chasing scientific and technological development, and don't forget the bottom line.
The use of technology will certainly continue to advance in the future, and there will be more and more tricks in intelligence warfare. Spyware may be just the tip of the iceberg, and there may be more unseen technological means in the future, which are used for intelligence and assassination.
