The revelation by a consortium of media agencies that politicians, journalists and activists were potential targets of surveillance through the software of Israeli surveillance company NSO Group has erupted into a global row over the issue. While the world went into a tizzy, Israel has ordered a probe to review the allegations against NSO. However, NSO has claimed the list in the public domain wasn't theirs. Although NSO refused to reveal names of countries contracted with the company, they welcomed any kind of probe.
Watch Geeta Mohan's interview with Israeli journalist Oded Yaron who says that they will have to wait now to see the impact on ties of Iran with other nations after this Pegasus snoopgate row. He further talks about non-transparency of the MoD and organisations such as NSO in the name of 'security matters'.
"There is a need to seek answers. Such snooping has been going on for a while," Yaron says.
