IDF says it’s using AI to quickly identify and strike new Hamas targets

The IDF’s Military Intelligence Directorate says its so-called “targets center” has identified some 1,200 new Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip amid the ongoing ground offensive that began last week.

The IDF says hundreds of soldiers are working to produce new targets “on a large scale.”

A senior intelligence officer says that “in war, the enemy behaves differently and creates new opportunities.”

The Military Intelligence Directorate is using artificial intelligence and automated tools to “produce reliable targets quickly and accurately,” the IDF says.

The senior officer says other new tools are being used for the first time to immediately provide ground forces in the Gaza Strip with updated information on targets to strike.

So far, the IDF says it has struck more than 12,000 targets in the Gaza Strip.
