Yunus Emre Institute
The Evidence, a documentary produced by Anadolu that exposes Israel’s war crimes in the Gaza Strip, was screened in London on Friday. The screening of the 52-minute documentary, which covers Israel’s attacks on Gaza since October in full detail, took place at the Yunus Emre Institute. The documentary consists of photographs and images taken by Anadolu reporters as well as interviews with experts.
Incidents in Gaza are discussed with the President of the International Court of Justice, Judge Joan E. Donoghue, UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese, Aya Majzoub, Amnesty International’s deputy regional director for the Middle East and North Africa, former Executive Director of Human Rights Watch Kenneth Roth and many experts.
Oguz Karakas, Anadolu’s project management coordinator, stressed at the event the Israeli government’s “non-selective killing” of innocent civilians in Gaza, subjecting people to hunger, and thirst and depriving them of basic humanitarian needs.
“As members of Anadolu, we want to highlight these horrific crimes unfolding in Gaza,” he said. Karakas highlighted the importance of The Evidence, saying many incidents might have gone unnoticed without it. “Anadolu is committed to playing its part, we’ve been gathering evidence, all now compiled in our book, The Evidence. We did not just compile them, we submitted the book to the International Criminal Court (ICC).” Reiterating that the documentary shows the world what has been happening in the besieged Palestinian enclave, Karakas underlined that they “want the international community to take more action with real results.” He thanked Anadolu’s President and CEO Serdar Karagoz for supporting the project in every stage of production.
