Moroccan journalists recount years of surveillance amid new Amnesty claim

Amnesty International released a report alleging that Morocco’s intelligence agency used Pegasus spyware and a wider surveillance apparatus to monitor and intimidate journalists, activists and lawyers between 2017 and 2021. The report, based on a whistleblower account from a former DGST employee dubbed 'Safir', details digital intrusions, physical tailing and efforts to co-opt service providers to infect devices.
