Israel is banning foreign journalists from the killing fields of Gaza for a very straightforward reason:

They will see the full consequences of some of the worst atrocities committed in the 21st century.

I am deeply troubled by reports that the Israeli military’s bombing campaign includes AI as a tool in the identification of targets, resulting in a high level of civilian casualties.

AI should be used as a force for good to benefit the world; not to contribute to waging war on…

'Just this week, two prisoners had their legs amputated due to handcuff injuries—which unfortunately is a routine event,' the physician said... He said inmates are fed through straws, defecate in diapers & are held constant restraints—which violate medical ethics & the law.'

Today, on behalf of three Palestinians in Rafah, we - a Berlin-based collective of lawyers - filed an urgent legal application against the German government to halt the export of war weapons to Israel. This legal action was taken in collaboration w/ Forensic Architecture & European Legal Support Center (ELSC)

I commend the states in United Nations Human Rights Council | #HRC55 who voted to pass a resolution calling to halt arms transfers to Israel at this critical moment. Next step for all states is to enforce this as well as recent UN resolutions to stop the ongoing genocide in Gaza. This is in line with states'…

REMINDER: the public hearings on the request for the indication of provisional measures submitted by Nicaragua in the case #Nicaragua v. #Germany will open on Monday 8 April at 10 a.m. (The Hague) before the #ICJ . Watch the hearings live on UN Web TV at webtv.un.org/en/asset/k1q/k…

States voted YES today at UN Human Rights Council on Resolution calling to END supply of military arms to 🇮🇱 in light of Gaza genocide.

A HUGE success for human rights for 🇵🇸 !

Shame on states that voted no inc. 🇦🇷 🇧🇬 🇩🇪 🇲🇼🇵🇾 and of course, 🇺🇲.

Follow The Civilian Agenda

We do not accept the narrative of ‘regrettable incidents'.

We do not accept it, because what has happened to MSF International’s convoys and shelters, is part of a deliberate pattern of attacks on humanitarians, health workers, journalists, United Nations personnel, schools, and homes.

Al Jazeera English

“It is understood members have asked their employers to stop giving them tasks related to export licences to Israel”

The full incident:
IDF soldiers shot indiscriminately at the starved & desperate crowed that tried to pick up the airdropped aid

The soldiers randomly singled out one starved man & kept shooting until they killed him & left his body to starving dogs

“We see gunshot wounds now in children from quadcopters, which are basically drones with guns.

And we have been seeing an alarming number of increasing infectious diseases, including hepatitis A outbreaks.” - Dr Amber Alayyan, MSF Deputy Programme Manager for the Middle East.…

As we see Israel using Artificial Intelligence to facilitate the commission of genocide in Gaza, thank you The Civilian Agenda for demanding international prohibitions on this morally repugnant use of AI. For the sake of humanity, killer robots must be banned. NOW.

Israel is using Artificial Intelligence to destroy Gaza and kill civilians en masse.

Palestinian diplomat, Nada Tarbush calls Israel out at United Nations, where militarised states continue to prevent such weapons being prohibited (after 10+ years of discussions).

This is an AI…

My interview with the Palestinian American doctor who walked out of a White House meeting with the president and vice president.
What President Biden said to him as he left:

'Automated systems, including one called “Where’s Daddy?” were used specifically to track the targeted individuals and carry out bombings when they had entered their family’s residences.'
