Gal Gadot revealed her heartbreak over Hamas’ attack on Israel which left at least 1,400 Israelis and Palestinians dead as she pledged her support to the victims of terrorists.
The Israeli actress, 38 – who previously said the ‘world must not sit on the fence’ over the war in Israel and Palestine – urged her followers to donate funds for those affected by the weekend’s attacks and slammed people reacting to the atrocities with ‘justification not empathy’ on Tuesday.
Sharing a post which read ‘Israel is under attack and we need your support’, she wrote: ‘Whoever can, and willing to donate, these peoples lives changed forever yesterday. They’ve lost so much and need help. Only if you can.’
She later wrote on her stories: ‘Whoever can and wiling to donate, these people’s lives changed forever yesterday
‘They’ve lost so much and need help. Only if you can. If you have less empathy towards victims because of how you feel about their government, propaganda is working on you.

‘The goal of propaganda is to dehumanize. It works to dehumanize Israelis and works to dehumanize Gazans
‘I like to think most of us are above propaganda. But this weekend reminded me how widespread it is. Because a lot of people reacted to this violence with justification, not empathy
‘I guess it’s not surprising but it’s still heartbreaking. Propaganda is everywhere. It seeps into us over time. It seeks to block our empathy receptors. So when we see violence, we rationalize away our human response
‘Killing innocent Palestinians is horrific. Killing innocent Israelis is horrific. If you don’t feel the same I think you should ask yourself why that is.’
On Saturday, she also posted a screenshot of an article that detailed how Israeli soldiers and civilians had been taken hostage by militants.
She wrote: ‘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.’
The former Miss Israel 2004 was one of the first Hollywood names to support Israel, writing: ‘I stand with Israel you should too. The world cannot sit on the fence when these horrific acts of terror are happening!’

Kylie Jenner has received support from Jewish organizations in America after she posted then deleted an Instagram Story showing her support for Israel on Saturday – following backlash from some of her fans.
The influencer, 26, took to her social media with image of Israel’s flag with the text, ‘Now and always, we stand with the people of Israel!’
The image she reshared was from nonprofit organization StandWithUs – a body which states that it supports Israel and opposes antisemitism.
On Twitter a video that appeared to be of comments on Jenner’s post showed numerous users replying that they supported a free Palestine.
Israel launched retaliatory strikes against Hamas after the militant group launched a series of attacks on Saturday, in the biggest escalation in the region in decades.
Under Kylie’s recent post – as she shared snaps from Paris Fashion Week – many have made their feelings clear by posting the flag of Palestine.
Other penned comments like: ‘Free Palestine’.
Roz Rothstein, co-founder and CEO of StandWithUs told TMZ while the group is pleased that Kylie shared their post, ‘it’s a shame that some people cannot express themselves honestly because of intense pressure and intimidation by Hamas sympathizers.’
American Jewish Committee spokesman Richard Hirschhaut also told the publication Kylie ‘did the right thing and acted with her heart with her initial post and should be applauded for speaking up and speaking out.’
But he said Kylie instead became ‘a subject of vicious and ugly scorn’ but hopes she reposts the message as ‘the power of social media and the power of celebrity is desperately needed at this moment when Israel is at war and under attack by a terrorist organization that is barbaric, inhumane and immoral.’
Mia Khalifa has been dropped by Playboy after loudly supporting the terror attacks by Hamas that left hundreds of Israelis dead.

The 30-year-old repeatedly supported the group’s bombings and kidnappings to her five million followers on X, urging the aggressors to film horizontally so she could better watch the carnage.
The Lebanese-American posted: ‘Can someone please tell the freedom fighters in Palestine to flip their phones and film horizontal.’
She made light of the horror conflict, joking about a ‘Zionist apartheid regime being brought down by guerrilla fighters in fake Gucci shirts’.
Khalifa also shared an image of the terrorists riding in the back of a pick-up truck, calling it a ‘Renaissance painting.’
She reposted a message saying ‘the United States of America is also a terrorist state’ and went after Jenner for sharing and then deleting a message in support of Israel.
‘If true journalism exists, the next person to talk to Kylie Jenner will ask for her opinion on geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and not break eye contact until she can string one coherent sentence together since she wants to take a stance to her 400M followers so badly,’ Khalifa wrote.
In an email sent out to its subscribers on Monday Playboy said: ‘Mia has made disgusting and reprehensible comments celebrating Hamas’ attacks on Israel and the murder of innocent men, women and children
‘At Playboy, we encourage free expression and constructive political debate, but we have a zero-tolerance policy for hate speech. We expect Mia to understand her words and actions have consequences,’ the statement finished.
Playboy has since deleted Mia’s Playboy channel from their creator platform – and the former porn star has been removed from the company’s Centerfold platform.
Khalifa apparently lost a business deal following her posts, with a company named Red Light Holland informing her she had been ‘fired effectively’ due to her ‘horrendous’ posts, but she doubled down.
‘I’d say supporting Palestine has lost me business opportunities, but I’m more angry at myself for not checking whether or not I was entering into business with Zionists. My bad,’ she said.
She continued defending her request that the terrorists film horizontally: ‘I just wanna make sure there’s 4k footage of my people breaking down the walls of the open air prison they’ve been forced out of their homes and into so we have good options for the history books that write about how how they freed themselves from apartheid.
‘I’m from LEBANON, are you insane for expecting me to be on the side of colonialism you f***ing weirdo.
Khalifa was born in Beirut and moved to the stages as a kid in 2001 during the South Lebanon conflict with Israel.
She has always expressed support for what she calls Palestinian’s ‘right to end Israeli occupation’ and often denounces ‘Zionists.’
The US-based star, whose real name is Sarah Joe Chamoun, used to work in the porn industry but now speaks out against it.
She became a controversial figure after filming sketches while wearing a hijab, and revealed in 2019 that she had received death threats over her work.
Over the weekend Hamas militants crossed into Israel from the Gaza Strip, seizing settlements and capturing and murdering civilians celebrating a Jewish holiday.
A music festival attended was one of the first sites to be attacked by the terrorist group, with 260 revelers massacred there.

Survivors described how the gunmen went ‘tree by tree’ executing victims and posted clips of the ordeal to social media, showing how they were forced to hide under bushes and record hushed farewell messages to their loved ones as they watched victims get killed one by one.
Many lay still in sheer terror for more than five hours before they heard the sound of armed rescuers speaking in Hebrew.
The Palestinian terrorist group stormed the Supernova Festival that had been taking place near Kibbutz Re’im, close to the Gaza Strip, as part of its surprise assault launched on Saturday.
Saturday’s attack on Israeli citizens marks the start of what could be the deadliest conflict in decades between Israel and Palestine.
As of Monday afternoon, more than 900 Israelis are confirmed dead – and on Sunday it was revealed more than 2,000 were injured in the attack. This does not include those still being held hostage in Gaza, the number of which is unknown but thought to be in the hundreds at least.
