Australian cricketer Travis Head tweets against Israel's bombing on Rafah
Melbourne: Several prominent Indian celebrities have publicly condemned the recent Israeli bombardment in Gaza's far-southern Rafah region, which resulted in the deaths of 45 individuals, according to Palestinian officials. This attack, which Gaza medics report left hundreds of civilians with shrapnel and burn wounds, has drawn significant international criticism.
In response to the international outcry, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu referred to the strike as a "tragic accident" but reaffirmed that he will continue the military campaign against Hamas, following the group's October 7 attack and the hostage crisis.
Australian cricketer Travis Head who is riding high after a successful IPL stint with Sunrisers Hyderabad which played the final of the tournament and lost to KKR in the mega event, posted in support of Rafah on his X (formerly known as Twitter) handle.
Head shared an “All eyes of Rafah” post and in another post wrote “Freedom is a human right. All lives are equal!” with an image of the same lines written on his shoes.
After a successful IPL where he amassed 567 runs in 15 outings, Head is set to represent Australia in the T20I World Cup set to begin next week in USA and West Indies.
Freedom is a human right.
