Israeli atrocities against Palestinians persist, escalating the urgency for awareness, with social media playing a pivotal role. Despite limited internet access, Palestinian journalists such as Motaz Azaiza and Bisan Owda are urging for amplification of their messages.

In Pakistan, celebrities have actively engaged in digital campaigns to garner support for Palestine. Notably, actor-model Ayeza Khan, who faced criticism previously, expressed solidarity on her Instagram, sharing an image with the caption “Always in our hearts. Always in our thoughts. Free Palestine.” Aiman Muneeb also joined in, posting an image of the Palestinian flag with a message of support.

This digital activism coincides with broader protests in Pakistan, where hundreds have rallied to express solidarity with Palestinians, highlighting a profound nationwide connection and empathy.

Reports from Al Jazeera depict dire conditions for thousands of Palestinian civilians in northern Gaza, facing severe shortages of water and food amid Israeli incursions. Israel’s announcement of deploying more troops and intensifying ground invasion in southern Rafah adds to the distress, with hundreds of thousands seeking refuge. Since the escalation began on October 7, Israeli attacks on Gaza have resulted in substantial casualties, with thousands dead or wounded.
