Palestinian film director and Academy Award-winner Hamdan Ballal was violently attacked by what his colleague described as a “lynch mob” of Israeli settlers on Monday night in the Palestinian village of Susya, south of Hebron in the occupied West Bank.
Ballal’s whereabouts are now unknown after Israeli soldiers then seized him from the ambulance that arrived to treat him, his co-director and fellow Oscar winner of the documentary No Other Land, Yuval Abraham, said on X.
Abraham, a journalist for +972 magazine, said in a separate post featuring a shaky cell phone video that masked settlers “attacked Hamdan’s village, they continued to attack American activists, breaking their car with stones”.
Everyday I an increasingly disgusted by the actions of Israel.
Your disgust has a scale that ranks higher than genocide?
Murder -> ethnic cleansing -> genocide -> Dantes Inferno!
Maybe you can be aware of it but you can slowly appreciate it in all of its horror.
I hope some of this disgust has translated into more action than just posting.
I take part in BDS.
That’s good
