Habsora – “The Gospel”
An artificial intelligence (AI) system that marks buildings and structures for airstrikes, generating targets faster than previously possible and facilitating what one former intelligence officer called a “mass assassination factory.”
- By November 10, during the first 35 days of the genocide, Israeli intelligence targeted 15,000 buildings and structures in Gaza for destruction.
- Habsora, “The Gospel,” targets “power targets” such as high rises, residential towers, universities, banks, and government offices.
- The purpose of bombing these targets is to destroy Palestinian civil society.
“Because we usually carried out the attacks with dumb bombs, and that meant literally destroying the whole house on top of its occupants. But even if an attack is averted, you don’t care — you immediately move on to the next target. Because of the system, the targets never end. You have another 36,000 waiting.”
