  "summary": "The Israeli military has denied allegations made in a documentary that it approved the deaths of 500 civilians during a strike on Gaza. The documentary, called NAZA, features interviews with 24 Israeli military or intelligence whistleblowers who discussed the AI-powered targeting systems used in the bombardment of Gaza.\n\nThe documentary's directors, Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, claim that the Israeli military's actions resulted in the deaths of tens of thousands of civilians. The film has sparked controversy in Israel, with Culture Minister Miki Zohar calling for the directors to be stripped of their citizenship, accusing them of \"treason against the state\".\n\nThe Israeli military has responded to the allegations, stating that the identities and roles of the individuals interviewed in the documentary cannot be independently verified. Other Israeli ministers have also condemned the directors, with National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir saying they are a \"disgrace and an embarrassment\" to the people of Israel.",
