Israeli Documentary 'NAZA' Alleges AI-Driven Civilian Targeting in Gaza, Premieres at Venice
The documentary "NAZA," directed by Israeli filmmakers Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, premiered at the Venice Film Festival to a record 25-minute standing ovation.

It details methods such as hacking phones and targeting civilians in their homes, challenging official Israeli accounts that emphasize efforts to avoid civilian harm. The film highlights the contrast between life in Tel Aviv and Gaza's devastation.
