Ritika Sajdeh, wife of India cricket captain Rohit Sharma, wins hearts with support for Gaza residents.
On Tuesday, Ritika posted the trending phrase “All Eyes on Rafah” on her Instagram story, joining a global chorus emphasizing the dire situation in the Rafah region of Gaza.
The phrase has gained traction on social media as an emblem of support for Palestinians facing severe hardships due to ongoing Israeli airstrikes.
Ritika’s post aligns her with many others around the world who are calling attention to the plight of over 1.4 million Palestinians seeking refuge from the violence.
Despite Ritika’s commendable stance, she has faced backlash from certain sections of Indian social media users.
The criticism underscores the polarized views on the Israel-Palestine conflict within India and beyond.
The situation in Rafah has become increasingly dire, with recent Israeli airstrikes targeting a United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) refugee camp, resulting in the deaths of at least 45 individuals.
