Oscar-winning Palestinian director Basel Adra reported that Israeli soldiers raided his West Bank home, searching for him and his wife's phone while his daughter was present. This followed an attack by Israeli settlers on his village, injuring family members. The Israeli military stated their presence was due to Palestinians throwing rocks, injuring Israeli civilians. Adra, whose film 'No Other Land' depicts settler violence, feels targeted since winning the Oscar. His co-directors express fear for his safety, highlighting the ongoing conflict and tensions in the region.
