Microsoft says no evidence Israeli military used its tech to harm civilians in Gaza
The US tech conglomerate announced on Thursday that following an interview review, it found no evidence that its technology has been used by the Israeli military to harm civilians during its war on Gaza.
The review came following months of protests and allegations from Microsoft employees that the company is complicit in international law violations through its commercial relationship with the Israeli military.
“We take these concerns seriously,” Microsoft said in in a blog post on the review, which involved dozens of employee interviews and a review of internal documents.
It added that it “found no evidence to date that Microsoft’s Azure and AI technologies have been used to target or harm people in the conflict in Gaza”.
Microsoft, which provides software, cloud infrastructure and AI services to Israel’s Ministry of Defence, said it maintains a standard commercial relationship with Israel’s government.

Revealed: Microsoft deepened ties with Israeli military to provide tech support during Gaza war
Leaked documents shed light on how Israel integrated the US tech giant into its war effort to meet growing demand for cloud and AI tools

The Israeli military’s reliance on Microsoft’s cloud technology and artificial intelligence systems surged during the most intensive phase of its bombardment of Gaza, leaked documents reveal.
The files offer an inside view of how Microsoft deepened its relationship with Israel’s defence establishment after 7 October 2023, supplying the military with greater computing and storage services and striking at least $10m in deals to provide thousands of hours of technical support.
Microsoft’s deep ties with Israel’s military are revealed in an investigation by the Guardian with the Israeli-Palestinian publication +972 Magazine and a Hebrew-language outlet, Local Call. It is based in part on documents obtained by Drop Site News, which has published its own story.
The investigation, which also draws on interviews with sources from across Israel’s defence and intelligence establishment, sheds new light on how the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) turned to major US tech companies to meet the technological demands of war.

Trump and Abu Dhabi ink partnership to build massive AI data center complex in UAE
The United States and United Arab Emirates will partner to build a massive data center complex in Abu Dhabi to advance artificial intelligence capabilities with 5-gigawatts of capacity — enough to power a major city.
The agreement, announced Thursday during US President Donald Trump’s visit to the UAE, will mark the largest data center deployment outside of the United States, according to the Commerce Department. It will begin with a 1-gigawatt AI data center, but will eventually span 10 square miles.
The project is also expected to expand the footprint of American AI and cloud companies in the Middle East, allowing them to better serve the global south.
