The Israeli documentary "Nez'a" (Accidental Damage), directed by Yuval Abraham and Rachel Shor, has won the Jury Prize at the 83rd Venice Film Festival. The film features testimonies from soldiers of Unit 8200, an elite intelligence unit of the Israel Defense Forces, detailing IDF operations during the war in Gaza. Some soldiers claim in the film that they were "involved in war crimes and genocide."
According to the filmmakers, the documentary exposes a deliberate policy of destruction and devastation, including the use of artificial intelligence in military operations. Upon receiving the award, Abraham stated, "Since this festival began, Israel has killed at least six Palestinian children in Gaza. The Israeli intelligence officers we spoke with told us how this mass killing is systematic. Not by accident, but by design."
The film presents difficult evidence from soldiers who served in the Gaza conflict, raising serious questions about the nature of the operations and the ethical implications of the intelligence gathered and used.
