French court mandates Gaza image re-screening
The French judiciary has ordered the re-exhibition of a photograph of two football teams from Gaza Strip at the Deauville Photography Festival, after the organizers removed it amid fears of public unrest and the spread of hatred via social media. The photograph, taken by photographer Jihad Al-Ashrafi, shows a stadium surrounded by destroyed buildings. It was part of an exhibition focused on the values of sports, which opened in June and is scheduled to run until September. The court considered the municipal authority's decision to withdraw the image as unnecessary and disproportionate, and stated that restoring its display would take six days.
