New from me and Harry Davies:

I spoke with Israeli intelligence officers about the AI-based system they used to mark 37,000 suspects for assassination in Gaza. In this long investigation, whistleblowers expose the machines & policies that killed thousands of civilians since October.

Introducing Lavender, the new Unit 8200 tool that has allowed the IDF to dramatically accelerate its pipeline of targets in Gaza with almost no human oversight and shocking permissiveness on civilian deaths. With Harry Davies and Yuval Abraham יובל אברהם

I don't think many realize the Houthis do have their own goals, aside from support of Gaza. Recent confrontations also provides them opportunity to legitimize their decades long claim of fighting the U.S. There are many layers to this, and I explained some to CNN International here. #Yemen

New from Harry Davies and me - introducing The Gospel, the AI facilitated military system that rapidly generates targets in Gaza at scale - 100 a day. The IDF used to run out of targets in previous wars (see the AP building in 2021); no longer.

While everyone is focusing on the drama at Al-Shifa Hospital, the real story is that Gaza City is no more. Empty of its million residents, uninhabitable for years to come. This is the response Hamas forced from Israel and it is seismic. Me in Haaretz.com haaretz.com/israel-news/20…

‘All men 16 years and above, raise your hands’: how al-Shifa raid unfolded, by ⁦Ruth Michaelson⁩ theguardian.com/world/2023/nov…

Shifa hospital has collapsed. Wounded and staff leaving in droves. Missile attacks this morning on outpatient dept. which housed internally displaced.

This was difficult to report but v important. There was little, if any, documentation of sexual violence on 7/10, in part because investigations were carried out by 4 different bodies with no coordination. Chances for dignity and justice have been lost.

The Israeli website, 'HonestReporting' suggested yesterday that photographers working for major outlets like the AP & Reuters might have had foreknowledge of Hamas Oct 7 attack.

Today, the group's director admits they have no evidence of that. apnews.com/article/israel…
