A documentary titled NAZA, which exposes the Israeli military systems responsible for the mass killing of Palestinian civilians in Gaza, received an unprecedented standing ovation at the Venice Film Festival on Thursday. The film, directed by Israeli filmmakers Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, garnered a record-breaking 24-and-a-half-minute standing ovation during its world premiere.

This ovation marked the longest in the festival's history, surpassing the 22-minute ovation given to Kaouther Ben Hania’s The Voice of Hind Rajab in the previous year. The Voice of Hind Rajab focused on the tragic story of a six-year-old Palestinian girl killed by Israeli forces in Gaza in January 2024.
