American pop singer Olivia Rodrigo has spoken out about the genocide in Gaza, calling the situation “horrific and completely unacceptable.”

In a message posted on her Instagram Story, Rodrigo expressed her sorrow over the plight of Palestinians in Gaza. “Parents, children, and families in Gaza are facing starvation, dehydration, and are being deprived of essential medical care and humanitarian assistance,” she stated. She continued, “No child in Israel, Palestine, or in any corner of the globe deserves to suffer as these children are suffering. To give up on them is to give up on our shared humanity.”

Rodrigo shared that she has donated to UNICEF to help civilians affected by the conflict and encouraged others to contribute if they can.

This statement comes as Israel continues its attacks under its genocide against Palestinians in Gaza, killing over 58,000 Palestinians since October 7, 2023. The ongoing blockade and airstrikes have caused critical food shortages and restricted access to medical care in the area.

Rodrigo is not the only artist voicing her worries about the situation. Singer Lana Del Rey recently commented on Instagram, “We pray for Palestine daily. I long for peace among all nations.” Billie Eilish has also condemned Israel’s proposal to relocate Palestinians from Rafah, calling the notion “terrifying.”
