It is pertinent to mention that a day earlier Israeli and Indian hackers breached Geo News transmission, inserting content aimed at defaming the Pakistan Army.

The cyber attack was swiftly condemned by authorities, calling it an attempt to undermine national security and media credibility.

However, Geo News issued a statement that the news channel has no connection with the message appearing on the screens.

Geo News also wrote in an issued statement, “For some time now, Geo News’ broadcasts have been facing continuous disruptions and an inappropriate message was broadcast by hacking the Geo News screen. This situation has nothing to do with Geo News.”

Geo News urged authorities to take notice of this issue as early as possible.

Several security analysts and journalists confirmed that the hacking of Geo News is not a simple matter, as it’s a well-planned attack on Pakistan.

One of the social media users and a journalist wrote in her post on X, “The hacking of Geo TV and Jazz Tamasha App transmission is not a simple matter. It has been orchestrated by Indian and Israeli hackers.

This was a sophisticated and well-planned attack specifically targeting the Pak Army, which clearly indicates the Pak Army is the sole obstacle standing in front of inimical forces who want to destabilise Pakistan.”
