Netanyahu calls for an investigation into the military involved in "NAZA" and the film's authors
According to the Israeli prime minister, the military and intelligence officers who describe in the film the practices used by the army to kill Palestinians have "seriously damaged the image of Israel" and committed serious crimes by disseminating "high-secret information."
Benjamin Netanyahuwants the creators and participants of the NAZA film, a documentary about the mass killing of civilians in Gaza, to be investigated and prosecuted, and shows the testimony of 24 Israeli military and intelligence officers , whom the Israeli prime minister accuses of "serious crimes against Israel's security."
"The film builds a false, misleading and biased narrative that defames the State of Israel and the IDF globally and seriously damages the image of Israel," he said in a statement.
Investigationsinto the film, directed by Yuval Abrahamand Rachel Szor, describe how various sources of Israeli intelligence authorize the death of hundreds of civilians in attacks on senior Hamas officials since 7 October 2023 as "collateral damage." In addition to the film, research is published in +972 magazine and in The Guardian , the film's producer.
"There is concern that those involved in this defamation film may have committed serious crimes by disclosing high-secret information and causing a security breach related to the data of an intelligence unit of extreme sensitivity," Netanyahu said.
That's why the Prime Minister has asked Army Chief of Staff General Eyal Zamir , Director of Intelligence Service Shin Bet David Zini, and State Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara .
The NAZA, which was exhibited at the Film Festival before arriving at the commercial halls, describes the practice of bombing Palestinian homes with entire families inside, once the father of the family, the alleged Hamas militia, returns to sleep at home, an acronym used by Israel to calculate the number of civilians who might die in an attack.
In addition, military personnel testifying report anonymously and for fear of reprisals that the Zionist army bombed areas under evacuation orders in Gaza, knowing that civilians were still there.
