The AI War on Iran: Project Maven, a Secretive Palantir-Run System, Helps Pentagon Pick Bomb Targets
The Trump administration says the United States has struck 11,000 targets in Iran since the U.S.-Israeli war on the country began. Critics have questioned the accuracy of the Maven system, the artificial intelligence system used by the military to speed up the process of identifying targets.

"Imagine Google Earth for war, a map of war with white dots, infused with information like elevation, coordinate, what is precisely there, whether it's friendly or foe," says Katrina Manson, a reporter for Bloomberg News and author of Project Maven: A Marine Colonel, His Team, and the Dawn of AI Warfare.

The Pentagon launched Project Maven in 2017. Google was an initial partner, but the company pulled out after over 3,000 Google employees signed a letter opposing the work. The big data firm Palantir then took over the project and has run it ever since.

U.S. Pressure on Cuba Continues Despite Arrival of Russian Oil Tanker
A Russian tanker carrying around 700,000 barrels of crude oil has arrived in the port of Matanzas, Cuba, breaking the U.S. blockade imposed by President Trump three months ago. Fuel shortages in Cuba have caused dayslong blackouts and have brought all sectors of the country to the brink of collapse.

The White House is claiming the arrival of the Russian tanker, unimpeded by the United States, does not signal a "formal change in sanction policy," and said U.S. decisions on shipments going forward would be made on a case-by-case basis.

"I think possibly what's going on is that the administration has begun to worry that their effort to strangle the economy could push the economy over the edge and generate a mass migration crisis," says William LeoGrande, professor of government at American University.

"Who is the United States? Who gave you the authorization to say how much oil is going into Cuba or not? This is illegal," adds Liz Oliva Fernández, a Cuban journalist with Belly of the Beast.
