Israel used Palantir technology in its 2024 Lebanon pager attack, book claims

A new book claims that Israel utilized technology from the US company Palantir during its 2024 pager attacks in Lebanon. These attacks involved the remote detonation of thousands of pagers belonging to Hezbollah members, resulting in 42 deaths and thousands of injuries. The biography of Palantir's co-founder, Alex Karp, identifies the operation as "Operation Grim Beeper" and notes the company dispatched engineers to assist Israel. The use of Palantir's technology for surveilling Palestinians and its role in the Gaza war have also drawn criticism from UN officials.
