Police disperse pro-Palestinian staff protests at Microsoft HQ in Washington

WASHINGTON: Police dismantled a protest encampment set up by current and former Microsoft employees at the tech giant’s headquarters in Redmond, Washington, over the company’s cloud services being used by the Israeli military for surveillance operations against Palestinians. Members of the worker-led campaign group, No Azure for Apartheid, occupied Microsoft’s East Campus in Redmond on Tuesday, demanding the company end its ties with Israel. The group accused Microsoft of complicity in war crimes in Gaza and the West Bank through its support of Israeli military and intelligence operations.
