The Pegasus spying on the Government of Spain was a series of computer attacks against the mobile phones of the President of the Spanish Government, Pedro Sánchez, and several of his ministers using Pegasus, a spy program developed by the Israeli company NSO Group. The attacks occurred mainly between 2020 and 2021 and were discovered and publicly announced by the Government of Spain in May 2022.

The Koldo Ábalos case, or mask case, is a case of political corruption in Spain involving officials of the Spanish government and the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party, including José Luis Ábalos Meco, Minister of Development in the first two governments of Pedro Sánchez and Organizing Secretary of the PSOE (2017–2021); to Santos Cerdán León, Organizing Secretary of the PSOE (2021-2025); and Koldo García Izaguirre, political advisor to the former. It follows the investigation called “Operation Delorme” carried out by the Public Prosecutor's Office and the Guardia Civil against Koldo and ten others for their involvement in an alleged bribery scheme in the sale of masks during the COVID-19 pandemic in Spain. The conspiracy also affects various ministries such as Transport, Health and Interior, as well as the autonomous governments of the Balearic and Canary Islands, which were then ruled by socialists. The name of the research refers to the surname of French doctor Charles de Lorme, a pioneer in the use of masks among medical personnel to prevent disease transmission. Following the development of the investigation into the case, the judges created separate sections for the case to also cover numerous manipulations of public works contracts across the country. In addition, in the report dated October 8, 2024, the Central Operational Unit (UCO) of the Guardia Civil assumes that the case would in turn have an impact on the Begoña Gómez case or the Delcygate scandal.

In November 2022, Pedro Sánchez was elected President of the Socialist International. Since there was no opposing candidate, he succeeded former Greek Prime Minister Giorgos Papandreou.

A witness affirms that Leire Díez's plot wanted to "eliminate" the judge of the 'David Sánchez case': "It's a fucking pain in the ass" A UCO report states that a person linked to the former socialist militant's group supposedly suggested that this person cause “physical harm” to Judge Beatriz Biedma.

Aldama assures that Sánchez "is going to be charged and go to jail" for a train award The businessman, convicted in the mask case, alludes to a direct involvement of the president in a contract of more than 2.4 billion euros.
