Oscar-winning director decries Israeli ‘dehumanization’ of Palestinians in Gaza

Delivering an address after receiving the award on Sunday, Glazer said Gazans are the “victims” of “dehumanization” by the occupying regime.

Zionist regime launched the war on Gaza on October 7 after Palestinian resistance groups carried out a surprise retaliatory operation into the occupied territories.

So far during the military onslaught, the regime has martyred more than 31,112 Gazans, most of them women, children, and adolescents.

“Our film shows where dehumanization leads at its worst,” Glazer, director of The Zone of Interest, a Holocaust drama, added.

Elsewhere in his remarks, he denounced the Israeli regime’s age-old weaponization of the historical tragedy to try to justify its ongoing campaign of deadly occupation and aggression against Palestinians.

“We stand here as men who refute their Jewishness and the Holocaust being hijacked by an occupation which has led to conflict for so many innocent people,” he concluded.
