Marvel Alters Israeli Superhero's Backstory Amid Backlash
Marvel Entertainment has altered the background of the Israeli superhero Sabra, originally an agent of Mossad, for the upcoming movie "Captain America: Brave New World." The character, Ruth Bat-Seraph, will now be portrayed as a former Black Widow and high-ranking U.S. government official, omitting any mention of Israel or Mossad. This change has sparked criticism from pro-Israel activists who accuse Marvel of erasing the character's Israeli identity.
