• In April 2025, Palantir described its work in Israel as longstanding and spanning government-sector civil, defence, and intelligence-related mandates ³.

• DBIO/BankTrack’s 2025 report discusses the partnership and identifies Gotham, Gaia, and AIP in its Palantir profile, but its product-to-deployment characterisations are civil-society reporting rather than a public primary contract or technical deployment record ¹⁰.

• No public evidence identified.

• The checked materials did not identify a Palantir office, branch, reseller, customer contract, service site, or disclosed operational presence in Israeli settlements, East Jerusalem settlements, the West Bank, Gaza, or the Golan Heights ^{7, 9, 11, 12}.

• The supplied document-scoped review found no Palantir mention in the checked 2023 and 2025 OHCHR settlement-business database materials, which does not establish an absence of settlement-linked activity beyond those documents ¹³.

• No public evidence identified of state shareholding, a golden share, or government equity ownership in the reviewed SEC 10-K and proxy materials ^{16, 17}.

Lobbying, Advocacy, Financing & Logistics

• Amnesty International’s 2025 report states that Palantir supplies AI products and services to Israeli military and intelligence services and calls for the company to cease operations with the Israeli military, representing Amnesty’s assessment and advocacy position rather than a judicial finding ¹⁴.

• AFSC Investigate lists Palantir on its divestment list, establishing an organised divestment-campaign listing but not independently verifying each substantive allegation associated with that listing ¹².
