Microsoft Cuts Off Some Services Used by Israeli Military Unit to Spy on Palestinians

HeadlineSep 26, 2025

Microsoft says it has barred the Israeli military from using technology it used to spy on millions of Palestinian civilian phone calls made each day in Gaza and the occupied West Bank and stored in Microsoft’s vast Azure cloud computing platform. It’s an unprecedented victory for No Azure for Apartheid, a group of current and former Microsoft workers demanding an end to Microsoft’s work with the Israeli military. But in a statement, the group called Microsoft’s actions insufficient, noting the vast majority of Microsoft’s tech sales to the Israeli military continue to be untouched. Later in the broadcast, we’ll speak with Hossam Nasr, an organizer with No Azure for Apartheid.
