Report: Iran hacked former justice minister Shaked's phone during 12-day June war

Iran successfully hacked the phone of former justice minister Ayelet Shaked during Israel's 12-day conflict with the Islamic Republic in June, according to Hebrew media reports. The breach, which reportedly only compromised her messaging account, is part of a broader campaign by Iran to target current and former Israeli officials with cyberattacks. Israeli authorities have responded by issuing new security protocols and have arrested dozens of citizens allegedly recruited by Iran for espionage and related activities since October 7. The ongoing cyber conflict has seen both sides escalate their efforts, with suspected Israeli hackers also targeting Iranian infrastructure in retaliation.
