Google dismisses 28 employees following protests against Israel contract

Google has fired 28 employees in response to protests over the company's involvement in "Project Nimbus," a $1.2 billion cloud computing contract with Israel's government. The demonstrations, organized by the group "No Tech for Apartheid," took place at Google's offices in California and New York, resulting in nine arrests. Google reported that the employees were dismissed due to disruptive behavior that prevented others from working and created a threatening atmosphere.
