From Al Masry al-Youm:
Organizer of the Cairo International Film Festival, Ezzat Abu Auf has said that he will not allow Israel to participate.
“I will not allow Israel to intrude into the festival even if I have to sleep on the doorstep to keep them out,” Abu Auf told reporters on Thursday evening,
In Arabic, he said it a little stronger: “I will not allow this to happen [any Israeli films at the festival] as long as I live.”
