Israel's Command System Identified 850,000 Targets in Gaza and Lebanon, Averaging 1,000 Daily

Miki Edelstein, an IDF reservist major general and Elbit Systems executive, disclosed at a RUSI conference in London that Israel's Tzayad command system identified 850,000 real-time intelligence targets between October 2023 and end of 2025. Elbit later disputed the characterization, claiming the figure reflected routine system activity rather than actual targets. The disclosure raises questions about the scale of targeting operations and transparency around Israel's military technology, with NATO's second-most senior officer seated on the panel.
