French footballer Karim Benzema expresses solidarity with Palestinians

French football sensation, Karim Benzema, has extended his support and solidarity to the oppressed Palestinian population in Gaza, who have been the victims of Israeli aggression.

Karim Benzema is renowned as one of the most celebrated footballers globally, having recently won the 2022 Ballon d'Or award.

In June of the past year, Benzema left Real Madrid, an iconic club in English football, to join the Saudi club Al-Ittihad.

In a message posted on the social media platform, Twitter, Karim Benzema expressed his concern and sympathy for the residents of Gaza who have been subjected to brutal bombing raids, where even women and children have not been spared.

It is worth noting that, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health, the Israeli airstrikes have claimed the lives of at least 2,670 Palestinians, including a significant number of children, and left 9,600 civilians wounded, with many in critical condition.

Karim Benzema's message serves as a powerful symbol of international solidarity with the Palestinian people during these trying times.

Toutes nos prières pour les habitants de Gaza victimes une fois de plus de ces bombardements injustes qui n’épargnent ni femmes ni enfants.
