“I’m pretty sad to see the news every day, and I honestly try not to be on social media because it’s horrifying video what’s happening in Gaza right now,” said the 29-year-old Tunisian.
“I wish the world could speak more because it’s really unfair what’s happening. These kids, woman, men suffering. We are in 2024, and it’s very sad to see that a lot of countries are silent about it.”
