Recent media reports claim
football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo donated $1.5 million to feed Palestinians
in the besieged Gaza strip in the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. Ronaldo has
expressed his support for Palestinians several times in the past, taking a
pro-Palestine stance in the ongoing Israeli-Palestine conflict. He has publicly
rejected the illegal and genocidal incursions of the Israeli regime severally.
The Portuguese star's
donation is a show of solidarity ti the struggling people of Gaza, and also
aims at alleviating their pain. Israel's relentless blockade of land, sea and
air access in Gaza has greatly affected the quality of life of the Palestinians
living in Gaza. Twitter users responded to the news of Ronaldo's generous
donation promptly.
Brilliant: "Regarded as one of the world’s greatest-ever professional football players, #Ronaldo is said to have made his generous donation in solidarity with the #Palestine people suffering en mass, and in particular... in #Gaza..."@VanessaBeeley https://t.co/QEATwhSvTc— Patrick Henningsen (@21WIRE) May 17, 2019
