Criticized in Egypt for his lack of reaction following the deadly Hamas attack and the response of the Hebrew state in the Gaza Strip, Mohamed Salah published a video on his social networks on Wednesday. The Liverpool striker called for an end to what he described as “massacres” in the Palestinian enclave.

“It’s not always easy to speak in a period like this, there has been too much violence and too much heartbreaking brutality,” began the Egyptian international (90 caps) before addressing his thoughts to the Gazans. All lives are sacred and must be protected. The massacres must stop because families are torn apart. What is clear now is that humanitarian aid to Gaza must be authorized immediately.

“Gaza residents urgently need food, water and medical supplies”

“The scenes at the hospital last night (Tuesday) were horrible,” reacted the Reds star. Gazans urgently need food, water and medical supplies, he added, his tone serious. I call on world leaders to unite to prevent further massacres of innocent souls. Humanity must prevail. »
