Hamas is filming a new series – “Kabadat al-Ahrar” – which will deal with an Israeli military operation in the Gaza Strip, and which will be a response to the Israeli “Fauda” series. One of those in charge of the series, said that the financial options are very poor, which is reflected in the salaries of the players.
The cost of producing the series is estimated at $ 300,000. For the purpose of the photography, a set was set up in which you can see a large picture of Benjamin Zeev Herzl and documents in Hebrew and Israeli flags. The series will be broadcast on Hamas’ al-Aqsa Channel during Ramadan and will also be distributed to Arab and foreign channels, including Turkish and Indonesian.
The post of officer David in charge of gathering intelligence on the fighters in the Gaza Strip will be filled by Zohir Balavisi, 65, who, in preparation for the job, met with recently released Palestinian prisoners. The Palestinian actors say that the fact that they embody Israelis sometimes brings them public criticism but “it means I was able to fulfill my role” says Balbisi.
