A new Guardian-produced documentary, NAZA, premiered at the Venice Film Festival featuring testimony from 24 anonymous Israeli military and intelligence insiders describing AI-based systems used to identify and bomb low-ranking Hamas targets in their homes, often killing entire families. The filmmakers say the testimony exposes systemic policies rather than isolated misconduct, including phone-hacking surveillance, mass home destruction and the killing of civilians at aid sites. The account adds to documented evidence of Gaza's devastation, underscoring how modern surveillance and AI targeting technologies are being deployed within a war centred on Israel and its neighbours.
