The Israeli government is speaking directly to Gigi Hadid after she weighed in on the developing crisis in Israel and Palestine.
The 28-year-old model, who is half Palestinian, took to social media last week to issue a response after the militant group Hamas infiltrated Israel and attacked citizens. The death toll now totals more than 1,400, according to CNN.
Israel responded and launched a counter-attack on Gaza, where Palestinians are dying.
“My thoughts are with all those affected by this unjustifiable tragedy, and every day that innocent lives are taken by this conflict —too many of which are children. I have deep empathy and heartbreak for the Palestinian struggle and life under occupation, it’s a responsibility I hold daily. I also feel a responsibility to my Jewish friends to make it clear, as I have before: While I have hopes and dreams for Palestinians, none of them include the harm of a Jewish person,” Gigi wrote on Instagram.
Her response continued, condemning “the terrorizing of innocent people” and saying it hurt the “Free Palestine” movement. “I know my words will never be enough or heal the deep wounds of so many, but I pray for the safety of innocent lives, always,” she wrote.
On Sunday (October 15), Israel called the model out on social media.
