It looks like the message encourages users to update "to the latest software version, iOS 16.6." I wonder if their message is different to users on devices which no longer can be updated beyond iOS 15, like iPhone 7, 7 Plus, SE and so on.
why do you think devices out of support date got any message at all?
I’d think this extends to all countries actually, and find it curious that only 92 are being notified.

you changed my mind successfully thank you but what about dumb phones from late 2000s like my Samsung Alias 2? what kind of sick bastard would make zero days for this
for those you don't need 0days. you can use 360*20days just fine. it's like there was any firmware update for them ever.
The message from Apple is so vague that it's useless. It just says to be afraid. There's no advice on what action to take.

Just out of curiosity why would you have imessage turned off?
*tinfoil hat on imessage and rcs (and arguably mms, although that started as cost cutting) are backdoors for the legal protections on mining telephony provider metadata for marketing. with those two "opt in" (lol) techs, all safeguards are off.
Doesn't say which 92 nations tho.

Android is more secure, especially in recent history. You can even see it in 0 day bounties. Don't pay attention to Samsung though, that company is probably the Apple equivalent of android.
I don’t see how the bounties back this up?

On the Apple Support page here: https://support.apple.com/en-in/102174 In the screenshot it says the threat notification was sent "via email and iMessage", so it would not be displayed in any different way on your phone, which I also find surprising. I definitely wouldn't expect to receive something like this as an Email, and I have turned off iMessage.
