Palestinian film director and Academy Award-winner Hamdan Ballal was violently attacked by what his colleague described as a "lynch mob" of Israeli settlers on Monday night in the Palestinian village of Susya, south of Hebron in the occupied West Bank.

Ballal's whereabouts are now unknown after Israeli soldiers then seized him from the ambulance that arrived to treat him, his co-director and fellow Oscar winner of the documentary No Other Land, Yuval Abraham, said on X.

Abraham, a journalist for +972 magazine, said in a separate post featuring a shaky cell phone video that masked settlers "attacked Hamdan’s village, they continued to attack American activists, breaking their car with stones".

Or you could read what the article says and not just the headline. Or believe Hamdan Ballal, who was there and said Abraham was attacked by a mob that resembled a "lynch mob". Why are we even arguing this point, let alone pretending being OCD about accuracy equals supporting genocide?
