Estelle Platini<p>It was easier to locate the individuals in their private houses.</p><p>“We were not interested in killing operatives only when they were in a military building or engaged in a military activity. On the contrary, the IDF bombed them in homes without hesitation, as a first option. It’s much easier to bomb a family’s home. The system is built to look for them in these situations.”</p><p>Yuval Abraham reports: <a href="https://www.972mag.com/lavender-ai-israeli-army-gaza/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"
