Israeli regime attacks Ammar filmfest venue in Gaza

Israeli regime has launched air attack on the venue for Ammar Film Festival in the besieged Gaza Strip.

Said al-Mishal Cultural Center in Gaza that was the center to screen Ammar Film Festival's selected movies has been attacked by Israel airstrikes.

The city of Gaza has already hosted the Iranian international event four times.

Screening 15 Iranian films, the Iranian film festival was held on March 14-16, 2018.

The Ammar Popular Film Festival goes against promotion of “individualism and extreme enjoyment without caring about the society's troubles and other human suppression,” the event’s official website notes.

The festival also enjoys an international version which aims “to raise real awareness and responsibility among the general public,” the website reads, adding the event’s mission is to create an atmosphere in which independent filmmakers and thinkers can gather together.
