Anat Schwartz
Anat Schwartz is an Israeli film director and writer. Schwartz served in the Israeli Air Force Intelligence in Modi'in. In 2017, she directed and filmed a documentary series titled "La Promesse," which was broadcast on the YesDocu channel.[1][2] The series was adapted into a documentary film.[3][4] In 2023, Schwartz co-wrote a controversial New York Times article about allegations of rape on the 7 October attack in Israel, which reportedly caused a "furious internal debate" about the strength of its reporting. [5] In February 2024, analysis of Schwartz' social media activity found that she had liked posts calling Palestinians "human animals" and advocating to "turn Gaza into a slaughterhouse," leading to allegations of bias and violations of editorial policies.[6]
