Israel’s E-Warfare: Using Smartphones to Kill the Lebanese Resistance

Israel penetrates everyday Lebanese smartphones and security cameras as part of a formidable surveillance and espionage mission to kill Hezbollah fighters.

Recently, there has been a flurry of reports detailing Israel's capabilities in surveillance and tracking of mobile devices in connection to Tel Aviv’s military aggression against southern Lebanon.

These covert operations, which often involve targeted assassinations by drones or warplanes, were executed by exploiting the presence of mobile phones – both smartphones and regular devices – among Lebanese resistance fighters while engaged in cross-border operations in support of the Palestinian resistance the day after Al-Aqsa Flood was launched.

Israeli intelligence uses the data from these devices, including GPS-enabled smartwatches, to pinpoint the locations of targets and to track fighters’ movements.

Additionally, there have been reports about Israel exploiting the devices owned by friends and families of resistance fighters, who may not be fully aware of the risks posed by their technology usage. This lack of awareness opens up avenues for Israeli intelligence to gather information through electronic means, such as smart TVs connected to the internet or other electronic devices that transmit data.

This vulnerability was recognized by Hezbollah Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah, who in a speech on 13 February urged his partisans in the south to “throw” away smartphones, which he described as “spy device[s].”
