Singer Ed Sheeran commented on the situation in the Gaza Strip during a recent performance, stating that what is happening there is "catastrophic and unjustifiable." This statement follows a controversy earlier this month concerning rapper Macklemore.

Macklemore was removed from Sheeran's tour after he wore a keffiyeh and delivered pro-Palestinian messages critical of Israel during his opening performance for the tour. The controversy surrounding Macklemore's actions appears to have prompted Sheeran's remarks.
