The team behind the documentary NAZA has disclosed that they interviewed over 100 sources to verify claims regarding Israeli military targeting in Gaza, countering an IDF statement that labeled the film’s content as factually erroneous. The Israeli military argued that the film relied on junior personnel with limited knowledge of the approval process, while the filmmakers maintained that their sources included senior commanders involved in final strike authorizations. This dispute follows a period of intense political backlash, including death threats against the directors and calls from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to revoke their citizenship. The Guardian, which produced the film, emphasized that their verification process included leaked classified documents and corroboration from confidential journalistic sources, asserting that the film’s findings align with reports from other major news outlets regarding the use of AI in targeting.
