Microsoft Investigating Employees After Gaza Protest Locks Down Building
Mint New Delhi
|August 28, 2025
Microsoft is weighing disciplinary measures for employees who occupied President Brad Smith's office on Tuesday in protest of the company's relationship with the Israeli government during its war in Gaza.
The employees, members of a group that calls itself No Azure for Apartheid, broadcast live video of themselves entering Building 34 on Microsoft's Redmond, Wash., campus and hanging banners inside Smith's office. A spokesperson for the group confirmed that several Microsoft employees participated in the takeover of Smith's office and were arrested.
Current and former employees, together with outside protesters, have in recent months engaged in a series of actions that have sought to draw attention to the tech giant's selling of software to the Israeli military, with protesters claiming the technology has been used to target civilians in Gaza. Microsoft has said it is investigating the matter.
