Singer calls for 88 million followers to ‘show your solidarity with Gaza’ following Israeli attack on Rafah
has condemned the military operations in Gaza, describing them as “Israeli genocide” in an Instagram post to her 88 million followers.
In December, she wrote: “With each passing day, my heart aches for the people of Israel and Palestine. Grief for the lives lost in the horrifying attacks in Israel. Grief as I witness the unprecedented suffering in Gaza, where 2.2m souls, half of them children, endure unimaginable hardships. For now, I desperately hope for a ceasefire in Gaza and urge governments to halt the unfolding crisis. Our hope lies in finding the empathy to recognise this dire humanitarian situation.
The following year Lipa was singled out along with models Gigi and Bella Hadid in an advert posted in the New York Times by the Jewish group The World Values Network, who described them as antisemitic and captioned a photo of them: “Hamas calls for a second Holocaust. Condemn them now.”
