Israel’s merciless air assaults on Palestinians are driving Pakistani celebrities insane. The escalation of conflict in Palestine and the murder of at least 1,900 Palestinians infuriated Pakistani celebrities. who are calling out hypocrites for their quiet and neutral views.
Amir Khan, the Pakistani-British boxing champion, issued a long statement condemning the public’s “shameful” silence. He rushed to the social networking platform X, formerly known as Twitter, and said, “Nearly 2000 Palestinians murdered in a few days, over 500 children, over 300 women,” listing the tragic numbers.
Here is what he shared:
Nearly 2000 Palestinians murdered in a few days, over 500 children, over 300 women.
Your pray for everyone’ statements had the equal effect of all lives matter,
and the prayers were surely only for those you consider human.
It’s not enough to make a lukewarm- tragically neutral…— Amir Khan (@amirkingkhan) October 14, 2023
Khan said in another post how his Foundation “is working with a local team to get food, aid, and shelters for those affected in Palestine.”

Osman Khalid Butt, renowned for his uncensored ideas and daring to call a spade a spade, released serious photographs of Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) damage in Palestine and exposed the use of phosphorous bombs in civilian areas of Palestine.
Butt wrote in his Tweet, “The use of phosphorous weapons in civilian areas is a war crime. Instead of urgently highlighting the atrocities committed by Israel, countries are banning pro-Palestinian protests. How deep are those Zionist pockets?”
