Israeli Minister Proposes Revoking Citizenship of Gaza Film Directors

The Israeli minister, whose name has not been disclosed in the reports, called for the revocation of citizenship from film directors based in Gaza. The proposal was reported by both the Straits Times and WION, with the former publishing the story at 12:10 AM and the latter at 4:33 AM on the same day. The minister's remarks were framed within a broader discussion on the treatment of cultural figures under Israeli occupation. The suggestion has drawn criticism from international human rights organizations, which argue that such measures disproportionately target individuals for their profession. No official action has been taken yet, but the proposal has already ignited discussions in both Israeli and international media. The minister did not specify the number of directors affected or the legal basis for the proposed action.
