Anadolu Agency reports on expert criticism over Israel’s use of AI tools in its military operations in Gaza, raising concerns about civilian casualties, lack of transparency, and accountability gaps in wartime AI deployment. The article discusses claims that AI may normalize indiscriminate targeting or obscure the chain of command in lethal operations.

The critique also implicates large tech firms involved in developing such systems, with calls for ethical oversight and clearer legal frameworks in both national and international law. Questions are raised about proportionality, due diligence, and compliance with international humanitarian law.

The case underscores the urgent need for global consensus on legal standards for military AI systems.
