A British police chief, Craig Guildford, has resigned after facing intense scrutiny for a decision to ban fans of the Israeli football team Maccabi Tel Aviv from a match. The ban was justified as a public safety measure based on intelligence that was later revealed to be flawed and incorrectly obtained using artificial intelligence. Guildford defended the decision against accusations of antisemitism, stating it was a necessary tactic to ensure public safety. Despite his defense, the UK Home Secretary declared she had lost confidence in him, leading to his resignation.
