Swara Bhasker is one of the renowned personalities from B-town. However, she is not just renowned because of her work but also because of her bold statements. Amid the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict celebrities from around the world have expressed their views. While from India, Kangana Ranaut showed her shock at the Hamas attacks on the Israelis, Swara Bhasker slammed such people via her recent post.
About the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine
On Oct 7th, 2023, the Palestinian Islamist organization Hamas did a surprise attack on Israel. To say that it led to tragic loss of life with hundreds of casualties and thousands of injuries would be a sheer understatement. This violence has prompted responses from world leaders, prominent individuals, and notable figures across the globe.

More or less the world is again divided on the issue with the West showcasing their support for Israel meanwhile the East (Muslim majority countries) showcase their support for Palestinians. The issue between these two countries is not a newfound one. It has been going since ages. One can only hope for it to not turn into a massive one and issues to be resolved, once and for all.
Swara Bhasker called out those who expressed “shock at Hamas Attacks,” called it “hypocritical”
Giving a background check on the whole matter and slamming those who express shock at Hamas Attack Swara Bhasker recently issued a statement via her Instagram story. The 35-year-old actress wrote as we quote,
“If you have not felt shock and horror at Israel’s unending atrocities on Palestinians, the forcible occupation of Palestinian homes, the forced evictions, the bigotry and violence of settler Israelis, the murder of Palestinian children and teenagers, the decades long blockade and bombing of Gaza and civilians in Gaza, including bombing of schools and hospitals (not to mention the apartheid and occupation), then I’m afraid your shock and horror at Hamas’ attacks on Israel seem a bit hypocritical.”
What is worth noting is that this is not the first time that Swara has issued a statement about being Pro Palestinian. Back in 2021, she called Israel an apartheid state. This is the time when violence escalated in East Jerusalem between Palestine demonstrators and Israeli forces. The actresses tweeted and wrote,

Kangana Ranaut took to her Instagram story in order to showcase her shock at the surprise attack by Hamas on Israel
Not long ago, Kangana Ranaut took to her Instagram story and shared her views on the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict. Via her story she affirmed how it is impossible to scroll through social media and not get jolted, scared, appalled, or deeply disturbed. She mentioned how Israeli women are being attacked by “terrorists” meaning Hamas. She wrote as we quote,
“It is impossible to scroll through SM and not get jolted/scared/appalled or deeply disturbed looking at Israeli women pictures, even their corpses are being raped and molested by the terrorists. One such corpse of a woman soldier is being paraded naked, it broke me in to million pieces, my heart goes out to Israel and its girls and women, every martyr deserves a dignified death. #Israel.”
