Israel is reportedly using artificial intelligence technology to select and expand potential targets.

Israel’s war has devastated much of Gaza.

The few days of calm under a temporary ceasefire with Hamas have all but disappeared now, with Israel resuming its air strikes and shelling.

Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly warned that he wants to eliminate Hamas.

So, what are the implications for civilians in Gaza? And could it lead to even more deaths?
