Rina Matzliach, a former Channel 12 news anchor, warned her followers this morning (Sunday) that she claims Iranians hacked her phone. In a story she posted on Instagram, as reported on the Kippa website, she wrote: "Hey, Iranians hacked my phone. Anyone receiving messages from me on Telegram, please ignore them. It's not me." The article notes that no details were provided about the method of the hack or the information accessed, nor was there independent verification of the hackers' identity. It also mentions a previous hack of Yinnon Magal's Telegram account and recommendations from the National Cyber Directorate for account protection. The article distinguishes between a phone hack and access to an app account, noting that these are not necessarily the same technical event.
