An open letter condemning Jonathan Glazer's 'Zone of Interest' Oscars acceptance speech has been signed by more than 450 Jewish Hollywood professionals.

The group denounced Glazer's controversial comments made when accepting the Academy Award for best international film.

The letter reads in part, "We refute our Jewishness being hijacked for the purpose of drawing a moral equivalence between a Nazi regime that sought to exterminate a race of people, and an Israeli nation that seeks to avert its own extermination."

France pushes efforts in Lebanon to prevent war between Hezbollah and Israel | Oneindia News

France's foreign minister announced plans to engage in discussions with Lebanese officials on Sunday to address tensions between Hezbollah and Israel and prevent potential conflict. Earlier this year, Foreign Minister Stephane Sejourne proposed a plan that involves Hezbollah pulling back 10 km from the Israeli border while Israel halts strikes in southern Lebanon. This proposal, discussed with partners including the U.S., aims to maintain momentum amid Israeli threats of military action in southern Lebanon. Tensions have escalated, particularly following Iran's missile strikes on Israel in response to events in Syria, leading to increased exchanges between Israel and Hezbollah. #France #Lebanon #Hezbollah #Israel #WarPrevention #MiddleEast #Diplomacy #ConflictResolution #PeaceEfforts #InternationalRelations ~HT.99~PR.152~ED.101~
