This recent expression of support is not the first time Lucky Ali has spoken out for a free Palestine. In November 2023, the singer faced backlash on social media after expressing his desire to visit Palestine. On X (formerly Twitter), Lucky Ali wrote, “Inshallah, I want to go to Palestine.” The post stirred controversy, with some accusing him of seeking attention on a sensitive global issue.
The Ministry of Health in Gaza has reported that the number of Palestinian casualties in Israel’s offensive has exceeded 25,000. Ministry spokesperson Ashraf al-Qudra stated that in the preceding 24 hours, 178 individuals were confirmed dead, bringing the total death toll to 25,105 over more than three months of conflict between Israel and Gaza. The situation has led to increased calls for a ceasefire and international intervention to address the humanitarian crisis in the region.
