Amy Jackson is the latest celebrity expressing her thoughts on the Israel and Hamas war. In a lengthy Instagram post, which she tagged as ‘dark times’, Amy spoke about the atrocities and urged people to condemn the violence.

We must use our voices and platforms to condemn terrorism. What is happening in Israel and Palestine right now is unbearable to witness and because of atrocities on both sides, innocent children and their families are being killed."
"I'm praying for every frightened child, every terror-stricken mother and father, heartbroken grandmothers and grandfathers, sisters and brothers who are experiencing unimaginable life shattering pain and fear. I'm praying for the innocent. I'm praying for peace,” she further added.
Previously, Swara Bhasker had reacted to the ongoing conflict and slammed those who seemed 'shocked' at Hamas' attacks. She had penned, “If you have not felt shock and horror at Israel's unending atrocities on Palestinians, the forcible occupation of Palestinian homes, the forced evictions, the bigotry and violence of settler Israelis, the murder of Palestinian children and teenagers, the decades long blockade and bombing of Gaza and civilians in Gaza, including bombing of schools and hospitals (not to mention the apartheid and occupation), then I'm afraid your shock and horror at Hamas' attacks on Israel seem a bit hypocritical."
Marvel actor Mark Ruffalo also penned a post on X, “Concerning the tragic events unfolding in Israel and Gaza, I am grief-stricken for the unspeakable suffering and loss of life and loved ones. This horrific violence must end. I have no answers obviously, but I feel it is absolutely necessary to focus on our shared human existence and reality. The sanctity of our common humanity will hopefully serve to heal the unimaginable wounds of division."
