Controversy surrounds Gal Gadot’s screening of uncensored footage

Agencies :
Gal Gadot is facing criticism for her alleged involvement in organising a screening of uncensored footage related to the October 7 conflict between Israeli military and Hamas in Israel. The event, titled ‘Bearing Witness to the October 7th Massacre’, is set to take place in the United States and will be attended by around 120 prominent Hollywood figures.
The footage, which was reportedly
collected by the IDF, has already been shown to the UK journalists in London.
The Oscar-winning director Guy Nattiv is said to have played a key role in bringing this film to the United States, with Gal Gadot and her husband, Yaron Varsano, reportedly
contributing to this effort. However, specific details about the screening date and
the guest list have not been disclosed yet.
In the early morning of October 7, fighters affiliated with the armed wing of Hamas broke out of the Gaza Strip and launched
a surprise attack on southern Israel.
At a small kibbutz, just 2km (1.2 miles) from Gaza, a community of about 200
people woke to blaring air raid sirens before Hamas fighters stormed the
houses, killing 13 people in the process.
Earlier on November 8, top diplomats from the Group of Seven (G7) have called for ‘humanitarian pauses’ in Israel’s bombardment in order to deliver aid to desperate Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip.
Following the news of Gal Gadot’s involvement in the screening, there has been a strong reaction on social media, with some users expressing disappointment and calling for boycotts of celebrities attending the event.
Quds News Network posted the news about Gal Gadot’s screening on X, following
which users flooded the comment
section slamming the actress.
