Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has formally demanded an investigation into the origins and sources of a new documentary, 'NAZA,' which alleges that the Israeli military utilizes artificial intelligence systems to conduct lethal operations in Gaza. The film centers on testimony from 24 anonymous Israeli sources who claim that these AI-driven systems have been instrumental in the killing of Palestinians during the ongoing conflict.

Netanyahu’s call for a probe suggests a challenge to the credibility of the documentary’s claims and the methods used to gather information from within the military establishment. By seeking an investigation into the sources, the Prime Minister’s office is signaling that the allegations regarding AI warfare are either inaccurate or represent a breach of security protocols. The documentary, which has garnered attention for its controversial subject matter, relies entirely on the accounts of these unnamed individuals, leaving the specific technical details of the alleged AI systems largely unverified by independent military or government spokespeople in the public record.

While the documentary frames the use of AI as a central component of military strategy, the Israeli government has not yet provided a detailed public rebuttal regarding the specific AI tools mentioned in the film. The situation highlights a growing tension between investigative reporting on military conduct and the state's efforts to maintain operational secrecy and control over the narrative of the war in Gaza. As of now, the identity of the 24 sources remains protected by the filmmakers, and the scope of the requested government investigation remains unclear.
