Israeli military veterans have castigated Israeli forces for the huge civilian death toll in Gaza, accusing the country’s armed forces of being unconcerned with the accuracy of their bombing and relying on flawed artificial intelligence in target selection, reports. Breaking the Silence, a veterans’ organisation monitoring Israel’s occupation of Palestinian territory, said the current death toll of 45,000 people killed in Gaza means that 15,000 more people have been killed than the Israeli army’s estimate for Hamas’s entire membership. While the “rate of death” in Gaza outpaces wars in Myanmar, Ukraine and Iraq, Hamas has still not been defeated, Breaking the Silence said in a series of posts on social media. “For more than a year since October 7th, 2023, we’ve seen the [Israeli military] make more and more criminally immoral trade-offs,” the group said. “ Deprioritising accuracy in favour of pace, careful planning in favour of brute force, humanity in favour of technology. All it got us in return was more death and ruin,“ it said.
