Hollywood Stars Join Together for Palestine Benefit Concert at Wembley Arena

A coalition of renowned celebrities, including Billie Eilish, Cillian Murphy, Joaquin Phoenix, and others, have united in a video message to support the 'Together for Palestine' campaign and benefit concert held at London's OVO Arena. The video, featuring appearances from actors, musicians, and activists like Brian Cox, Steve Coogan, and Nan Goldin, calls for an immediate ceasefire and urges the public to pressure governments to stop the violence in Gaza and the West Bank. The concert, organized by Brian Eno, aims to raise funds for Palestinian-led organizations such as the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund and Palestine Medical Relief Service. The event, sold out in-person and livestreamed online, includes performances by Bastille, James Blake, Damon Albarn, and appearances by Florence Pugh and Benedict Cumberbatch, among others. Celebrities emphasize the importance of speaking out during the ongoing crisis, with statements condemning government complicity in civilian deaths and highlighting the artist's role in speaking truth to power. The concert follows recent global calls for Palestinian rights, including a UN declaration labeling Israeli actions as genocide.
