AI Summary

Citizen Lab, in collaboration with the SHARE Foundation, confirmed that a member of Serbia's student protest movement had their iPhone infected with NSO Group's Pegasus spyware via an iMessage zero-click exploit. This is part of a broader pattern: at least 14 Serbian opposition figures, politicians, and activists have been targeted with advanced spyware since December 2025. The findings reinforce that Pegasus zero-click delivery remains active and is being deployed against civil society targets in Europe.
