The Israeli Army uses the cloud storage and artificial intelligence services provided by large U.S. technology companies to "participate and collaborate directly" in Israel's extermination campaign against Gaza since 7 October 2023. A study conducted by the media 972 Mag and Local Call confirmed what was suspected: The Israeli Armed Forces (IDF) have been using data processing and artificial intelligence from Amazon, Google and Microsoft for ten months to design a wide range of attacks and targets against the civilian population in campaigns against Hamas and Palestine.

In fact, Racheli Dembinsky, Army Colonel, said Israel’s servers were overloaded immediately at the beginning of the campaign, requiring large tech companies to use cloud services. Especially Amazon. Specifically, the Amazon AWS cloud stores and generates applications to set targets for bombing, a portal to view live images of unmanned aerial vehicles in the skies of Gaza, as well as fire, command and control systems.

In the cloud, the profiles of over 2.5 million people who survive in Gaza accumulate.

The investigative media also affirms that servers managed by Amazon Web Services provide intelligence information obtained through mass surveillance of the Gaza population. "Three sources of intelligence maintain that the Army's collaboration with AWS is particularly close: the cloud giant gives the Israeli Military Intelligence Directorate a server farm that is used to store large quantities of intelligence information that helps the Army in the war," says the article signed by Yuval Abraham.

In the cloud, as stated in the article, the profiles of more than 2.5 million people who currently survive in Gaza accumulate. On another screen, next to one that shows this Amazon cloud service, there's a console with confidential Army information.

Magazine +972 research clarifies that Israel combines the use of two artificial intelligence systems to create military targets in the Gaza Strip. Through the "Habsora", he identifies the buildings that allegedly belong to the Hamas and Jihad bases. "Lavender" is based on individuals.

Former employees of Google and Amazon have denounced these tools that are within the Nimbus project in the Gipuzkoan capital. It is an agreement of over 1.2 billion signed by the Israeli Government and the multinationals in 2021 that allowed the creation of advanced IT centres competition from Israel.
