Hollywood star Angelina Jolie, UN special envoy in the Gaza Strip, today called for a ceasefire and stated that what is happening there is an "act of terror" and that the loss of innocent lives cannot be justified. , reported a dispatch from the ANSA agency. "What happened in Israel is an act of terror. But you cannot justify the innocent lives lost in the bombings of the civilian population of Gaza, who have nowhere to go, no access to food or water, nor the possibility of evacuating and not even the basic right to cross the border and seek refuge," Jolie said. "To deny aid, fuel and water is to collectively punish" the population and assured that "humanity demands an immediate ceasefire. Palestinian and Israeli lives, and the lives of everyone, are worth the same." Jolie specified that she had chosen Doctors Without Borders as the association to support and sustain. The star of films such as "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", "Tomb Raider" and "Maleficent" also said that he has been working with refugees and displaced people for 20 years. "Gaza is home to more than 2 million people (half of them children) who have been living under a severe blockade for almost 20 years, coupled with decades of displacement and statelessness. The few aid trucks that arrive are a fraction of what is needed and the bombings cause new and desperate humanitarian needs every day. The denial of aid for fuel and water is collectively punishing a people. Humanity demands an immediate ceasefire," he said.
