Elbit Systems revealed that Israel's Tzayad digital command and control system identified approximately 850,000 targets in real time across Gaza and Lebanon between October 2024 and end of 2025, averaging around 1,000 potential targets daily. The system, supplied by Israel's largest arms manufacturer, mapped people, vehicles, and other objects across multiple military theaters of operation.
Why it matters: This disclosure illustrates the scale of AI-powered military targeting systems now deployed in active conflicts and raises critical questions about autonomous weapons, civilian harm prevention, and the role of defense tech suppliers in warfare operations.
