Gaza documentary makers slam BBC after shelved film wins BAFTA

Gaza documentary makers slam BBC after shelved film wins BAFTA

Just saw that the documentary 'Gaza: Doctors Under Attack' won a BAFTA award! The filmmakers called out the BBC during their speech for shelving the film over 'impartiality concerns.' They revealed that over 1,700 Palestinian doctors and healthcare workers have been killed, and dedicated the award to those detained. The BBC even edited the speech when broadcasting it. Channel 4 ended up airing the film after the BBC dropped it. It's a powerful reminder of the importance of telling these stories despite attempts at censorship. https://www.arabnews.com/node/2643142/media

1,700 doctors killed... that's horrifying. The award is well-deserved.
