Israeli Culture Minister Miki Zohar has threatened to revoke the citizenship of filmmakers behind a documentary on Gaza after it won recognition at the Venice Film Festival, calling the film 'vile.' The film reportedly addresses allegations of genocide in Gaza, drawing a sharp rebuke from Israeli officials. Israel has since escalated its response, opening a formal investigation into the film for alleged treason and incitement to anti-Semitism. The film reportedly alleges that mass civilian deaths have been routinely built into Israeli military decision-making during the Gaza war, a claim that has intensified the government's efforts to discredit and legally target its creators.
