That's amazing. If only more celebrities would help...

I'm applauding this. Great to see action from someone with means and status.

I actually want to cry now. I think it's because it's not just talk, but seeing the action. And all this in the face of the oppression of anti-genocide voices going on.

This is what we need to keep seeing. This is a really important thing. I hope more celebrities follow suit.

I am glad to see things like this happening, but with no one being allowed into Gaza thanks to the IOF, is it actually helping?

The WFP says it comes at a critical time when over 1M Gazans face starvation. During the truce, the organization were able to reach more than 121,000 people in Gaza, providing fresh bread, fortified date bars, canned food, wheat flour, pasta, tomato sauce, and oil.

It's great to see someone actually help who are not starving. Who are being starved right now.
