Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, an Israeli state-owned weapons company, released a promotional video showcasing its Spike Firefly drone targeting and killing a person in Gaza. The video, depicting the drone's capabilities in an urban setting, has sparked controversy. The targeted individual appears unarmed and not posing an immediate threat, raising concerns about potential war crimes. The video's geolocation suggests filming between June and December 2024. Rafael has not commented on the video's content, while critics label the action a potential war crime violating the Geneva Conventions and the Rome Statute.
