Huh, I worked on a site with a similar issue in ~2019. A massive flood of traffic for a single site from Indian mobile apps (~15kqps at peak iirc).

I think it ended up being a sort of mobile-based botnet with a bizarre target, which luckily was deduced from some of the headers sent (they all had a random common header).
