A screening is held for the Hollywood community of a film of the murderous atrocities committed by Hamas against Israelis on October 7.
The event showing “Bearing Witness to the October 7 Massacre,” was reportedly organized by Gal Gadot and Israeli director and screenwriter Guy Nattiv, with a second screening to be held in New York.
According to ABC news, Gadot did not attend the screening at the Museum of Tolerance.
The Hollywood Reporter says Israel’s ambassador to the United Nations Gilad Erdan was in attendance, along with security officials.
The event was held under tight security.
According to local news affiliate Fox 11, there were brief scuffles outside the Los Angeles venue when pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian demonstrators clashed.
The graphic 47-minute film was put together by the IDF Spokesperson’s Office from footage retrieved in large part from video cameras worn by the terrorists, who documented the carnage in real time.
On October 7, several thousand terrorists burst through the border from Gaza by ground, air, and sea. They attacked over 20 Israeli towns, kibbutzim, and IDF bases, leaving many of them in total ruin.
They killed some 1,400 people and took over 240 to Gaza as hostages, where they still remain.
