Indian Celebrities Join 'All Eyes On Rafah'; Israel Responds with 'Where Were Your Eyes...'

Celebrities, sportspersons, and millions of other social media users worldwide have been sharing the 'All Eyes On Rafah' campaign to draw attention to Israel's air strikes in Rafah, a southern city in Gaza.

Among the Indian celebrities who posted the "All Eyes On Rafah" image were Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Alia Bhatt, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Madhuri Dixit Nene, Varun Dhawan, and Samantha Ruth Prabhu.

The posts by Indian celebrities also drew intense criticism from netizens who questioned why they were silent on the plight of Hindus in neighbouring Pakistan.

Reports indicate that at least 45 civilians, including children, were killed at a refugee camp in Rafah during an Israeli air strike aimed at Hamas.

This incident has sparked international outrage, further isolating Israel on the global stage over its actions in Gaza.

In response, Israel released an image questioning why similar attention was not given to the Hamas attack on 7 October.

This attack led to the deaths of around 1,160 people in Israel, mostly civilians.

The Hamas terrorists also captured around 250 hostages, some of whom were released during a truce in November.

According to Israeli authorities, 99 hostages are still believed to be alive, while 31 have died.

The ongoing military campaign by Israel to dismantle Hamas has resulted in at least 31,112 deaths, as reported by the Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza.

Amid widespread condemnation, Israel has denied targeting the Rafah camp, attributing the damage to a secondary fire caused by a rocket hitting a Hamas weapons facility.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), the Israeli government shared an image with the text "Where were your eyes on October 7", depicting a Hamas terrorist holding an assault weapon standing in front of a baby.

This response came shortly after the 'All Eyes On Rafah' campaign went viral, with nearly 45 million users sharing it on Instagram.

The image associated with the campaign shows densely packed tents in a desert landscape, representing the Palestinians displaced during Israel's military actions against Hamas.
