Angelina Jolie Highlights Gaza Destruction, Calls for Aid

Hollywood star Angelina Jolie has again voiced her support for the Palestinian people, this time by highlighting the extensive destruction in Gaza. On her Instagram account, she shared a post comparing Google Earth images from 2022 and 2026, illustrating the devastation. Jolie described entire neighborhoods as having been reduced to rubble, with homes, schools, universities, hospitals, roads, and essential infrastructure severely damaged or destroyed.

She noted that with winter approaching, 1.98 million people, or 94% of Gaza's population, require shelter and vital supplies. Jolie pointed out that the delivery of aid and shelter materials continues to face significant restrictions and delays.

"Google Earth clearly shows the physical destruction," she wrote. "What it cannot show is what it is like to live in this destruction, what happened to the families killed, and what the lives of those who survived are like. The destruction is visible. The needs are known. What matters now is whether they will be met."

Jolie has been a vocal critic of Israel's actions in the conflict and has previously expressed support for the Palestinian side, even after the October 7th attacks. She has visited the Egyptian side of the Rafah crossing as part of a humanitarian mission for Gaza residents. Her public stance has also led to criticism from her father, actor Jon Voight.
