Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has demanded an investigation into 24 anonymous Israeli military sources featured in the award-winning documentary NAZA. The film alleges that artificial intelligence-powered targeting systems were used in attacks that killed civilians in Gaza. His office said he instructed senior security and legal officials to examine the film's participants and consider prosecution.
The demand places the documentary and its anonymous contributors at the centre of a growing confrontation over Israel's military conduct in Gaza. The film relies on testimony from serving or former military insiders who allege that the Israeli army killed scores of civilians through the use of AI-powered targeting systems.
