What happened?
In Germany, the phones of some Bundestag lawmakers and government representatives were targeted. The attack surfaced through security warnings Apple sent to device owners.
Details remain limited
According to the report, those affected include lawmakers and government representatives. However, the person or group behind the attack is not yet known. How many people were affected and which spyware was used also remain unclear.
Why it matters
Such attacks on iPhones are often linked to state-backed actors using targeted spyware. Apple's warning system aims to prevent users from being monitored without their knowledge. The targeting of politicians shows the attack is not just an individual but an institutional security issue.
