Israel kill 62 and uses AI to target Palestinians
Israeli attacks have killed 62 Palestinians and injured 91 others over the past 24 hours in Gaza.
Israeli forces shelled Deir el-Balah and the Nuseirat refugee camp.
Concerns have arisen over Israel’s use of AI-assisted targeting systems, with experts highlighting risks to civilian lives.
Reports say the Israeli military has identified tens of thousands of Palestinians in Gaza as potential targets using an AI-assisted targeting system called “Lavender.”
This week’s killing of seven humanitarian workers in Gaza, who were part of a convoy with the World Central Kitchen, has drawn attention to the issue prompting calls for investigations by their respective countries.
Celebrity chef Jose Andres who founded WCK, says the vehicles the aid workers were traveling in were picked off one-by-one by an Israeli drone.
Later a missile strike killed seven aid workers in a car sent to rescue the injured.
Meanwhile, the Israeli military’s response to threats from Iran includes halting leave for combat units and calling up reservists.
At least 33,037 Palestinians have been killed and 75,668 wounded in Israel’s war on Gaza since Oct. 7.
The death toll in Israel from Hamas’ October attack stands at 1,139 with dozens still held as prisoners.
Israel stands accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice, which last week asked it to do more to prevent famine in Gaza.
