These "documentarians" with clear agendas get celebrated while ignoring the complex realities on the ground. The article even admits this Adra guy collaborated with an Israeli journalist - so obviously some Israelis oppose these policies too. Not everything is black and white! The bulldozing happened in a designated military zone, which every sovereign nation has the right to establish.
Here are the top political news stories for today.

That's factually incorrect. The article clearly states they were "tearing down to USE as a military training zone," not that it already was one. Masafer Yatta has been inhabited by Palestinians for generations. In May 2022, Israel's Supreme Court ruled against the residents after a 20-year legal battle, allowing Israel to evict them from this land they've historically lived on.
This isn't about "border policies" - these are people being removed from their ancestral homes. The documentary won because it provided compelling evidence of human rights concerns.
