Gal Gadot's film screening on Israel-Hamas war in Los Angeles sees multiple fights outside venue

Multiple fights broke out outside Hollywood actress Gal Gadot's Los Angeles screening of a film showing the October 7 surprise attack on Southern Israel by the Hamas group.

The 43-minute film "Bearing Witness" featured "extremely graphic and violent" footage documenting the atrocities committed by Hamas on October 7th, 2023, ABC News reported.

The media outlet said that some of it included footage shot by members of Hamas.

Viral videos on the internet show two groups clashing outside the city's Museum of Tolerance on Pico Boulevard where the screening was being held.

Gal Gadot is said to be involved in organising the screening but did not attend the screening in person, the media outlet reported.

The 'Wonder Woman' actress, who is an Israeli, faced backlash on social media for supporting genocide.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, some 200 people were in attendance at the screening, where there was a heavy security presence.

An official with the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), Israel's ambassador to the United Nations, and Hollywood executives were among those reported to have attended the event.

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass said we must stand together. "We cannot allow current worldwide tension to devolve into this unacceptable violence in our city," she wrote on X. "This is a time of immense pain and distress for thousands of Angelenos. We must stand together."
