Subject: request for the Immediate Release of Filmmaker Hamdan Ballal
To the attention of
Ministry of Foreign Affairs
Embassy of Israel in Italy
We wish to express our deep concern over the arrest of Palestinian filmmaker Hamdan Ballal, recently awarded the 2025 Oscar for the documentary No Other Land.
We believe that this arrest constitutes a serious violation of freedom of _expression_, as well as the right to culture and information. Hamdan Ballal’s work, which peacefully denounces the injustice and suffering endured by the Palestinian people under occupation, has received international recognition and has brought global attention to a reality that deserves to be heard and respected.
We strongly call for the immediate and unconditional release of Hamdan Ballal and join the appeals of numerous human rights organizations in urging respect for the fundamental principles of the rule of law and artistic freedom.
We trust in your prompt action to end this unacceptable detention.
Sincerely,
Alessandro Marescotti
PeaceLink - president
