- 0:08Speaker 1: You're listening to Israel Today Ongoing War Report. I'm Noah Levi.
- 0:12Speaker 1: We begin with a concerning development detailed in a threat
- 0:15Speaker 1: report from Anthropic and highlighted by Telegram channel Amir Tsarfati.
- 0:19Speaker 1: The report indicates that Iran and its proxies, specifically the Houthis,
- 0:23Speaker 1: have weaponized AI tools like Claude for sophisticated purposes. This
- 0:28Speaker 1: includes using clawed code to develop guidance, navigation and control
- 0:32Speaker 1: software for weapons, bypassing the need for traditional engineers. The
- 0:36Speaker 1: Houthis have reportedly been running three parallel weapons development programmes.
- 0:41Speaker 1: A guided rocket with a phone-class flight computer, a multi-stage
- 0:45Speaker 1: ballistic missile capable of reaching over 2,000 kilometres and an
- 0:49Speaker 1: R-2000 line that includes a hypersonic glide vehicle. These efforts
- 0:54Speaker 1: were reportedly hidden from Anthropic, leading to the banning of
- 0:57Speaker 1: offending accounts. Furthermore, the report details the Islamic regime's use
- 1:02Speaker 1: of AI for espionage and soft-war propaganda. It states the
- 1:06Speaker 1: regime built an automated OSINT identity profiling harness to compile
- 1:11Speaker 1: intelligence dossiers on hundreds of individuals in Israel and the
- 1:15Speaker 1: Jewish diaspora. This profiling targeted Israeli government officials, private citizens
- 1:20Speaker 1: and organisations connected to Jewish communities. Additionally, An Iran nexus
- 1:25Speaker 1: actor reportedly used AI to create detailed targeting handbooks on
- 1:29Speaker 1: US naval forces, including personnel, ship and aircraft identification, and
- 1:35Speaker 1: satellite imagery. The regime also developed doctrine manuals and personas
- 1:39Speaker 1: under its Jihad al-Tabian mandate, even faking citations to think
- 1:44Speaker 1: tanks during the 2026 US-Israel-Iran war. On the diplomatic front,
- 1:48Speaker 1: the US State Department announced that upcoming talks between Israel
- 1:52Speaker 1: and Lebanon will take place in Washington DC, rather than
- 1:55Speaker 1: in Rome as initially planned, according to jpost.com. A State
- 2:00Speaker 1: Department official stated that these meetings will address ongoing developments
- 2:04Speaker 1: and the continued implementation of the trilateral framework, which is
- 2:08Speaker 1: described as the sole practical mechanism for restoring Lebanon's sovereignty
- 2:13Speaker 1: and ensuring Israel's security. The next round of formal discussions
- 2:17Speaker 1: is anticipated in Rome in October. We also have reports
- 2:20Speaker 1: of antisemitic incidents. In Phuket, Thailand, An anti-Israel protest near
- 2:26Speaker 1: a Chabad house saw organisers issue messages containing anti-Semitic language,
- 2:30Speaker 1: asserting they were protecting Thai traditions from foreigners. Jpost.com reports
- 2:35Speaker 1: that protest organisers later stated, These Jews are staying inside
- 2:39Speaker 1: their mansions. They will not go outside. This follows a
- 2:43Speaker 1: pattern of recent protests in Thailand that have included anti-Semitic messages.
- 2:47Speaker 1: Adding to these concerns, the same anthropic threat report cited
- 2:51Speaker 1: earlier highlights that the Islamic regime, through its AI activities,
- 2:55Speaker 1: has been compiling intelligence dossiers on individuals in Israel and
- 2:59Speaker 1: the Jewish diaspora, targeting government officials, private citizens and organisations
- 3:04Speaker 1: tied to Jewish communities. Finally, in more positive news, New
- 3:09Speaker 1: York City Mayor Zoran Mamdani shared a Rosh Hashanah message
- 3:12Speaker 1: for Jewish New Yorkers. Jpost.com reports that Mamdani released a
- 3:16Speaker 1: video featuring Jewish children and traditional symbols of apples and honey,
- 3:20Speaker 1: wishing them a sweet, joyful and meaningful new year. His
- 3:24Speaker 1: message also touched on hopes for health, happiness and even
- 3:27Speaker 1: sports victories for the coming year. I'm Noah Levi, thank
