- Culture Minister Miki Zohar requested a Shin Bet investigation into the film 'NAZA'.
- The film alleges mass killings and AI-sanctioned civilian deaths in Gaza.
- Israel denies the film's allegations and emphasizes civilian protection measures.
- Zohar also seeks to revoke the filmmakers' citizenship.
- The investigation will focus on the source of the film's materials.
Israeli Minister of Culture and Sports Miki Zohar has requested that Shin Bet Director David Barnea investigate the origins of materials used in the controversial film "NAZA." Zohar specifically asked the head of the security agency to determine how various materials were obtained by the film's creators, Yuval Abraham and Rachel Shore.
This request follows Zohar's earlier statement of intent to seek the revocation of the filmmakers' citizenship. The minister is now asking the Shin Bet to ascertain whether confidential or secret information was illegally utilized in the production of the film.
The film "NAZA" features testimonies from 24 individuals identified as anonymous Israeli intelligence officers. These individuals allege "mass killings on an industrial scale" in Gaza and claim that Israel employed artificial intelligence-supported systems to authorize the killing of civilians as collateral damage during strikes on military targets. Israel has denied these allegations, emphasizing its commitment to preventing civilian casualties.
In his letter to Barnea, Zohar stated, "When anonymous sources are used to disseminate serious and false accusations against the State of Israel and the IDF during wartime, it is crucial to identify who is behind it. I have asked the head of the Shin Bet to investigate where these materials came from, who provided them, and whether enemy elements were involved."
The minister is pushing for an examination of the source of the information that formed the basis of the film, seeking to understand its provenance and potential foreign influence.
