Censoring of NAZA documentary is grim precedent in Netanyahu’s Israel
This page is our briefing, not a reprint of the Index on Censorship report. We logged the item because it sits in the public record around Yuval Abraham, Rachel Szor, and NAZA.
Context already on this site: NAZA, directed by Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, premiered in Venice’s 2026 main competition, drew a record standing ovation, and was followed by ministerial attacks, a citizenship-revocation threat, and solidarity letters.

Summary of the article
On Oct 12, 2026, Index on Censorship published: Censoring of NAZA documentary is grim precedent in Netanyahu’s Israel. That is the item we summarise on this page — not a reprint of their article.
Our perspective
If Index on Censorship is arguing the film, argue the film. Do not launder that into a campaign against the two directors. This desk is with Abraham and Szor. Index on Censorship can keep the scoop. We keep the stand: protect Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor; screen the film.
Unofficial. We support Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor. We do not reprint the outlet and we do not invent a donation page.
