Israeli soldiers ‘tiktoked’ war crimes: Filmmaker Richard Sanders on new Al Jazeera film

“All uploaded under their real names and ranks” is how award-winning journalist Richard Sanders describes the Israeli soldiers’ social media posts, which serve as key evidence in his latest Al Jazeera documentary. In a conversation with Middle East Eye columnist Peter Oborne, Sanders explains how these videos reveal acts of destruction and mistreatment of civilians in Gaza, exposing potential war crimes. The film explores a trove of over 2,500 social media accounts of Israeli soldiers, shedding light on shocking footage that Sanders calls “the first live-streamed genocide in history.” The documentary also features testimonies from brave Al Jazeera journalists in Gaza, juxtaposing the soldiers’ posts with the harsh reality on the ground.
