Israel's propaganda directorate being sued by unpaid activists claiming millions

Former employees of Israel’s national public diplomacy directorate, which oversees Israeli propaganda, are demanding millions of shekels for unpaid work carried out since October 2023, according to Israeli daily Calcalist.

Known by its Hebrew name, Hasbara, the national public diplomacy directorate is being sued by companies and contractors who provided their services in the first months of Israel’s genocide in Gaza, which followed the Hamas-led attack of 7 October 2023.
