Israel's Minister of Culture has publicly advocated for the stripping of citizenship from directors Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor. This call follows the pair's recent recognition at the 83rd Venice International Film Festival, where their documentary "Naza" secured the Special Jury Award. The minister characterized the film's content as an act of treason against the state. The documentary's title is derived from an Israeli military acronym referring to collateral damage. The controversy highlights ongoing tensions regarding artistic expression and political discourse within the country, as the government reacts to the international acclaim received by the filmmakers for their work addressing military operations.
