Hamdan Ballal, Oscar-Profitable Palestinian Filmmaker, Attacked & Arrested In West Financial institution

Israeli settlers attacked Hamdan Ballal, co-director of the Oscar-winning movie No Different Land, earlier than the navy detained him within the occupied West Financial institution. Witnesses reported masked and armed settlers storming the village, assaulting Palestinian activists as they fled a barrage of rocks. Ballal’s spouse heard him screaming, “I’m dying,” as he was overwhelmed and brought away. His co-director, Basel Adra, noticed him blindfolded, handcuffed, and dragged to a navy automobile, calling the assault “revenge” for his or her movie, which uncovered Israeli demolitions in Masafer Yatta. The Israeli military claims clashes erupted after Palestinians threw rocks at settlers. Ballal and others stay in navy custody, with no contact allowed.
