🌱🏴🅰️🏳️⚧️🐧🔧📎 AmbiyelpI think this is an AI image that misrepresents the scale of the attack
In the APNews report webpage such a striking image as this was not included anywhere and Amazon was quoted as characterising the damage like this:
"
“These strikes have caused structural damage, disrupted power delivery to our infrastructure, and in some cases required fire suppression activities that resulted in additional water damage,” AWS said in an update on its online dashboard.

This hardly sounds like the complete destruction in this image
And there are several strange details
• Most of the walls have been destroyed except exactly how much was needed to show the amazon web services logo
• Despite part of this wall section being destroyed the logo wall-facade segments have been damaged rather than falling off segment at a time
•The green vans look to be ambulances painted in british ambulance colors depsite UAE typically using blue and white vans (red for critical patients)[2]
•The van behind that one is too small to be the same model, and the car behind looks ridiculously small compared to the other vans
•There is a person standing in the rubble on the right for no discernable reason, and their head is either obscured or missing
•The architecture decision to include a tiny strip of windows on the right side of the building is slightly unusual
•The Burj Khalifa tower appears to be missing from the Dubai skyline
If you must use AI generated images please at least tag them as such so as to not spread misinformation

Strikes on Amazon data centers highlights vulnerability to physical risks
Iranian drone strikes damaged three Amazon Web Services sites in the Middle East, exposing how vulnerable cloud data centers are in conflict. AWS said late Monday that drones directly hit two data centers in the United Arab Emirates and another site in Bahrain suffered damage after a drone landed nearby. AWS later said recovery work in the UAE was making progress. An expert said that Amazon typically configures its services so that the loss of a single data center would be relatively unimportant to its operations. He said the attacks are a reminder that cloud computing isn’t “magical” and still requires physical facilities that are vulnerable to disaster scenarios.
