A number of Hollywood actors expressed their support for Israel following Hamas’ surprise offensive, iconic singer Madonna voiced her support for Tel Aviv but she faced mixed responses in the comments section of Instagram's post.
As per recent reports, over 900 Israelis have been killed around 950 Palestine people killed while thousands were injured on both sides.
In a long post, Madonna said: “What is Happening in Israel is Devastating.. Watching all of these families and especially children being herded, assaulted and murdered in the streets is Heartbreaking. Imagine if this was happening to you?? It’s Un-fathomable.
Conflicts can never be resolved with violence. Unfortunately Humanity does not understand this Universal truth. Has Never Understood it. We live in a World Ravaged by Hate.
My heart goes out to Israel. To Families and Homes that have been destroyed. To children who are lost.
To Innocent Victims who have Been Killed. To All who are Suffering or who will suffer from this conflict. I am praying For you. I am aware that this is the work of Hamas and there are many innocent people in Palestine who do not support this terrorist organization. This Tragic attack will only cause more suffering for everyone Let us all Pray. For Israel.”
