Microsoft has reportedly let go of two software engineers, Ibtihal Aboussad and Vaniya Agrawal, following their disruptive protests during the company's Copilot event. The engineers voiced concerns over Microsoft’s ties with the Israeli military, with Aboussad interrupting CEO Mustafa Suleyman's keynote and Agrawal shouting during a panel featuring Satya Nadella and Bill Gates. In an internal message, Microsoft criticized Aboussad for not raising concerns through proper channels. The protests are linked to a broader movement among employees advocating against the company's dealings with Israel.
