Israeli actress Gal Gadot, best known as the actress who plays the role of Wonder Woman, has reacted after Palestinian Islamist group Hamas launched an attack on Israel.
The actress took to Instagram and shared that she is heartbroken by the recent turn of events. She added that she prays for everyone in pain. Jamie Lee Curtis, Everything Everywhere All At Once star, also expressed her grief over the turn of events.
“At least 250 Israeli have been murdered and dozens of women children and elders held as hostages in Gaza, by Palestinian military group Hamas. Starting early morning more than 3,000 rockets were fire. Hamas is holding hostages, controlling bases and settlements in Israel. There have been more than 1,500 injured and heavy fighting is still ongoing ‘I hear their voices and they are banging on the door. I am with my two little children.’ My heart is aching Praying for all of those in pain,” Gal wrote as she shared news clippings from the attack in Gaza.
The Wonder Woman star followed the post with another post that read: “I stand with Israel you should too.
The world cannot sit on the fence when these horrific acts of terror are happening!”
Gal wasn’t the only international star to have reacted to the war. Talent manager and writer Guy Oseary wrote, “This is horrific.. these murders are being celebrated by the government/regime in Iran. Many women, children and elderly are being taken from their homes and kidnapped. I have always prayed for peace. ALWAYS. I have always spoken up for my Jewish community and have also spoken up for my Arab brothers and sisters. I have no words today. Only heartbreak. Only tears.”
On Satuday, the militant Hamas rulers of the Gaza Strip carried out the unprecedented attack on Israel at daybreak, firing thousands of rockets as dozens of Hamas fighters infiltrated the heavily fortified border in several locations by air, land and sea and caught the country off-guard on a major holiday. A senior commander from Hamas has claimed that thousands of rockets were launched from Gaza into Israel.
