Google and Apple made this change to prevent the two sides from using the map to identify their military units. It is said that the main reason for this step was a request made by the Israel Defense Forces.
According to the statement made by Google Maps spokesperson Carlone Bourdeau, users in the region will be able to see the estimated arrival time according to traffic conditions. However, this will not be possible in places with high traffic density. The relevant statement made by Bourdeau is as follows:
“As we have done before in conflict situations and in response to the evolving situation in the region, we have temporarily disabled the ability to view live traffic conditions and congestion information, taking into account the safety of local communities. “Anyone traveling to a particular location will continue to receive routes and ETAs that take into account current traffic conditions.”
The use of live traffic density data for military purposes has happened before. Because in the war between Russia and Ukraine, which started in early 2022, it was seen on Google Maps that there was traffic congestion during the movements of the troops.
