Israeli attacks intensify one year after No Other Land co-director’s statement

Israeli settlers have escalated attacks on the West Bank villages featured in the Oscar-winning film “No Other Land”, with co-director Hamdan Ballal’s family bearing the brunt of reprisals. Despite an Israeli court ruling, settlers stormed Ballal’s hometown of Susya, leading to violence and arrests. The retaliation against his family, rather than himself, has intensified since the documentary’s release. The film highlights tensions between Palestinians and settlers in Masafer Yatta, where Israeli control over Palestinian territory continues to expand.
