Google Fires Employees for Protesting Israel Contract
Google Fires Employees , for Protesting Israel Contract.
28 Google workers have been fired for protesting
a $1.2 billion contract that the company has with
the Israeli government and military to provide
cloud and AI services, NBC News reports.
.
The firings follow an April 16 sit-in at
Google's offices in California, New York and Seattle in which nine workers were arrested.
The group that coordinated the demonstration
is known as No Tech for Apartheid.
.
Google issued a statement about the recent firings.
A small number of employee
protesters entered and disrupted
a few of our locations.
, Google spokesperson, via statement.
Physically impeding other employees’
work and preventing them from
accessing our facilities is a clear
violation of our policies, and
completely unacceptable behavior.
, Google spokesperson, via statement.
We have so far concluded
individual investigations that
resulted in the termination of
employment for 28 employees,
and will continue to investigate
and take action as needed, Google spokesperson, via statement.
No Tech for Apartheid claims that the
workers were fired "indiscriminately.".
This excuse to avoid confronting
us and our concerns directly,
and attempt to justify its illegal,
retaliatory firings, is a lie, No Tech for Apartheid, via statement.
Meanwhile, many of Google's workers have
reportedly quit after experiencing "mental health consequences of working at a company that is using their labor to enable a genocide," No Tech for Apartheid said.
On a personal level, I am opposed
to Google taking any military
contracts — no matter which
government they’re with or what
exactly the contract is about.

in Washington who was arrested during a sit-in, to CNBC

A shocking new video released by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) shows the dramatic assassination of a top Hamas-Hezbollah commander, marking a significant blow to Iran-backed factions operating in the region. The video captures the moments leading up to the strike, which obliterated the target, sending shockwaves across the Middle East. This targeted operation is seen as a major escalation in Israel's ongoing efforts to disrupt terrorist networks aligned with Iran, which have been destabilizing the region.

Overnight in Gaza, relentless airstrikes and shelling between midnight and 3 a.m. marked one of the most violent nights in recent memory. Strikes hit every corner of Gaza City—east, west, and center—leaving families devastated. A bombing on the Bakr family home killed four, while other neighborhoods like Khan Younis, Jabalia, and Rafah faced nonstop attacks. Civil defense bulldozers were destroyed, and key infrastructure was targeted. As the humanitarian crisis worsens, the strategy appears to focus on crippling Gaza’s emergency response capabilities.
