The Toronto International Film Festival has canceled the screening of a documentary about the October 7 attack on Israel, citing a lack of 'legal clearance' for footage filmed by Hamas. The documentary, which follows retired general Noam Tibon's rescue efforts during the attack, included video clips recorded by Hamas terrorists. Festival organizers reportedly expressed concerns about possible disruptive protests and made increasing demands on the filmmakers before ultimately withdrawing the invitation and canceling the screening. The filmmakers and supporters have criticized the decision, arguing that the festival is yielding to pressure and silencing important stories about the attack.
