Operation Arnon: Inside Israel's Daring Hostage Rescue in Gaza

Operation Arnon: Inside Israel's Daring Hostage Rescue in Gaza tells the story of a high-stakes Israeli rescue mission to free hostages held by Hamas in Gaza’s Nuseirat refugee camp on June 8, 2024. The operation unfolded in broad daylight, under heavy fire, in one of the most densely populated areas of Gaza. Through firsthand accounts from Israeli commanders, intelligence officials, and the family of Chief Inspector Arnon Zmora—who was killed during the mission—the film traces the planning, execution, and aftermath of one of the most complex hostage rescues in recent history. The mission required near-perfect intelligence, simultaneous assaults on multiple locations, and infiltration into a crowded urban battlefield. What followed was an intense firefight as Israeli forces worked to extract the hostages. The film also explores the controversy surrounding the operation, including casualty reports from Gaza and the broader debate over how the raid has been portrayed internationally.

Outdated sheep fences have excluded pronghorn from prime habitat in the Red Desert of Wyoming for over 75 years. After record snowfall in 2022-23 caused thousands of animals to perish along the fences, a group of wildlife professionals discovered an area of more than 100,000 acres that was excluding pronghorn. Within a year's time, conservation groups and a rancher worked together to restore access to the pronghorn's historic habitats and give this species a better chance at surviving an uncertain future.

The Right to Truth

Kyiv, 1989. A demonstration dedicated to the anniversary of the Chornobyl tragedy is happening at the “Dynamo” stadium – all the seats are filled, the words “Chornobyl, Prypiat, a warning” are visible on the scoreboard. People took to the streets in search of truth because years after the tragedy, there was still no comprehension or public awareness of the real dangers of radiation, and a general feeling that no one from the government had been punished for the accident or for carrying on with the 1st of May demonstration held in Kyiv in the first days of the tragedy.
