How HSBC's Sharia fund invested millions in Israeli war-linked firms

Al Jazeera

'This is an apartheid regime' Does Trump have real leverage over Netanyahu? How HSBC's Sharia fund invested millions in Israeli war-linked firms Share How HSBC's Sharia fund invested millions in Israeli war-linked firms on social media The United Kingdom's biggest so-called Sharia-compliant fund spent more than $130 million to buy shares in several companies linked to the Israeli military amid an ongoing genocide in Gaza, pogroms in the occupied West Bank, and occupation of southern Lebanon. HSBC, Europe's second-largest bank, invested the funds through its Islamic Global Equity Index Fund in companies linked to Israel's military supply chain - from components used in weapons to technology and equipment with military applications. The firms range from US tech giant Palantir to the world's second-largest arms company, RTX. Israel's genocidal war on Gaza has killed more than 74,300 Palestinians since October 2023, including nearly 1,500 killed since a "ceasefire" was agreed upon last year.

Al Jazeera probe exposes fake viewing numbers for Israeli counter-film

Al Jazeera

'This is an apartheid regime' Does Trump have real leverage over Netanyahu? An Al Jazeera investigation has exposed holes in claims that an Israeli counter-film to the acclaimed documentary NAZA achieved more than 44 million views. By examining domain registries, web archives, source code, and three independent traffic tools, the investigation exposed the fabricated numbers adopted by official Israeli entities to promote the film. The original award-winning film, NAZA, draws on testimony from 24 unnamed Israeli military whistleblowers, accusing the army of using artificial intelligence-powered targeting systems to kill numerous civilians in Gaza. The documentary takes its name from the Israeli military term for civilian casualties expected in air strikes.


Hundreds of IDF investigations into killings without public outcome, BBC Verify finds

BBC News

BBC Verify has identified 254 incidents in which the Israeli military has been accused of killing or injuring people in Gaza, Lebanon, the occupied West Bank and Israel that it said it was investigating, but have no public outcome. Using purpose-built AI tools, BBC Verify combed through more than 60,000 news reports and examined hundreds of incidents in which the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) faced allegations of harm since the start of the Gaza war. Following extensive manual checking of each incident, we found 300 cases that the military said it was looking into, only 28 of which had outcomes published on the IDF website. For a further 18 incidents it was unclear if the investigation has been concluded. BBC Verify approached the IDF about each case multiple times but only received information on two incidents, which the IDF said are still under review.
