Angelina Jolie speaks out on Gaza humanitarian crisis

08-09-2025 03:30 PM


Ammon News - Actress Angelina Jolie has stated that as many as 132,000 children in Gaza are at risk of dying due to acute malnutrition and starvation. This number does not include over half a million people facing the threat of famine. The figure could soar to 640,000 by the end of September. This statement was made by the Hollywood actress through a post on Instagram on Sunday, September 7, 2025.

In her post, Jolie shared four slides containing alarming data from a UN agency. The mother of six quoted a statement by UN Deputy Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs Tom Fletcher, who referred to the Gaza crisis as "a preventable famine allowed to happen through wickedness and indifference." A similar warning was also issued by the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), stating that failure to act now will have irreparable consequences.

Angelina Jolie's Voice and Public Support
In her post, Jolie emphasized that serious warnings from international organizations should prompt real action, not just empty rhetoric. She wrote that human rights are inherent to every human being because of their humanity, not because of their identity or place of residence.

"It is shattering to see that so many innocent lives - and principles so many of us stand by and believe in - are being disregarded in this way," Jolie wrote. She believes that this situation is not a sudden loss of morality, but rather the result of selective patterns in defending human rights.
