　　Natalie Portman, the Oscar-winning actress known for roles in movies such as “Black Swan” and the “Star Wars” prequels, has backed out of a major award ceremony meant to honor her in Jerusalem.

　　Her representative said that "recent events in Israel have been extremely distressing to her and she does not feel comfortable participating in any public events in Israel” and that “she cannot in good conscience move forward with the ceremony”.

　　Portman, who was born in Jerusalem and holds dual Israeli and US citizenship, was named in November last year as the recipient of the 2018 Genesis award, a yearly prize dubbed the "Jewish Nobel" to recognise individuals “who have attained excellence and international renown in their chosen professional fields” and “who inspire others through their dedication to the Jewish community and Jewish values”.

　　Portman did not initially elaborate, leading many to interpret her decision as stemming from the protests along Israel’s border with Gaza, in which about three dozen Palestinians have been killed by Israeli fire over the past four weeks.

　　Portman’s decision, which she said was “mischaracterized by others,” had caused a backlash in Israel after organizers of the Genesis Prize award ceremony said they canceled the prize-giving.
