The experimental effort, which has not been disclosed, is being used to conduct mass surveillance of Palestinians in Gaza, according to military officials and others.

After Oct. 7, Israeli intelligence officers in Unit 8200 turned to that surveillance for information on the Hamas gunmen who breached Israel’s borders. The unit also combed through footage of the attacks from security cameras, as well as videos uploaded by Hamas on social media, one officer said. He said the unit had been told to create a “hit list” of Hamas members who participated in the attack.

Corsight was then brought in to create a facial recognition program in Gaza, three Israeli intelligence officers said.

    Israel should have been created in part of Germany if anywhere. It’s completely asinine that they ran the people already living there off at gunpoint and called it a country. People who had nothing to do with WW2 or the Nazis.

            They are making it convenient, they started doing the arbitrary borders thing to themselves, like the customs border they now have inside their country
