American actress expresses support for Palestinians

American actress Susan Sarandon reiterated support for the people of Palestine on Friday.

"To be clear: Being against the occupation of Palestine does not make one pro-Hamas. Being against the occupation of Palestine does not make one anti-Semitic," Sarandon wrote on Twitter.

Sarandon voiced support for Palestine earlier this month when she wrote: "Standing in solidarity with the Palestinian people who are facing ethnic cleansing and being terrorized at the hands of the Israeli government and Jewish settler organizations. The world is watching."

As Israel-Palestine tension escalated, several celebrities, including Gigi and Bella Hadid, Zayn Malik and Roger Waters declared solidarity with Palestine.

A cease-fire between Israel and Hamas resistane movement began early Friday.
