Google fired 28 employees on Wednesday involved in a protest against the cloud-computing contract with Israel.

Police have arrested nine Google employees at the tech giant’s offices in New York City and Sunnyvale, California, after staging an hours-long sit-in in protest against the company’s $1.2-billion Nimbus contract with the Israeli regime.

Amid the Israeli genocide in Gaza, workers at Google and Amazon have stepped up pressure on their companies to cut ties with the regime, including the controversial Project Nimbus.

A Palestinian activist says tech giants are working with the Israeli military, and aid in human rights violation and the colonization of the Palestinians.

Hundreds of workers will hold the rally against their companies’ controversial deal with the regime.

Google is offering advanced artificial intelligence and machine-learning capabilities to the Israeli regime, which human rights advocates fear would reinforce the regime’s human rights abuses in the occupied Palestinian territories.

Over 1,600 workers at tech giants Amazon and Google urge their employers to pull out of a contract under, which they will sell “dangerous technology” to the Israeli regime and its military.
