Israel planted devices to spy on Trump: report

Israel reportedly planted StingRay surveillance devices near White House in an attempt to capture President Donald Trump's phones.

An investigation by the FBI and other U.S. agencies concluded that Israel was responsible from the act, according to a Politico report citing former three U.S. officials familiar with the matter.

“It was pretty clear that the Israelis were responsible,” one U.S. official told the Politico on condition of anonymity.

A spokesperson from the Israeli embassy in the U.S. immediately denied the allegations and called them ''absolute nonsense''.

''Israel doesn’t conduct espionage operations in the United States, period," Elad Strohmayer told Politico.

Trump administration has not made any statement yet.
