Guterres denounces Israel's linking of its killing orders in Gaza to artificial intelligence. "No part of the crucial life-and-death decisions that affect entire families should be delegated to cold-blooded algorithmic calculations," he added.

Israel has been waging a devastating war on the Gaza Strip for about 6 months, leaving tens of thousands martyred and wounded, most of them children and women. Israel continues the war despite the issuance of a UN Security Council resolution demanding an immediate ceasefire during the month of Ramadan.
