Urging Peace: Run The Jewels Pleads for Palestinian Support, Israeli Ceasefire

Run The Jewels, a well-known celebrity, along with Adam Lambert, Dua Lipa, Gigi Hadid, and several other top artists, has signed an open letter urging President Joe Biden and Congress to push for a ceasefire in the war between Israel and Palestine.

The open letter, called The Artists4Ceasefire, demands that President Joe Biden and Congress push for a ceasefire in the war between Israel and Hamas. The Artists4Ceasefire open letter was sent to Biden and Congress in an effort to persuade the U.S. government to convince both parties to de-escalate hostilities in the region after weeks of fighting.

In the open letter, Run The Jewels stated, “Children and families in Gaza have practically run out of food, water, electricity, medicine, and safe access to hospitals, following days of air strikes and cuts to all supply routes. Gaza’s sole power plant ran out of fuel, shutting down electricity, water, and wastewater treatment. Most residents can no longer get drinking water from service providers or household water through pipelines. The humanitarian situation has reached lethal lows, and yet all reports point to further attacks. We ask that, as President of the United States, you and the US Congress call for an immediate de-escalation and ceasefire in Gaza and Israel before another life is lost.”

The involvement of Run The Jewels in signing the Artists4Ceasefire letter demonstrates their concern for Palestinians and indirectly appeals to Israel to halt the relentless attacks on Gaza, which have claimed the lives of thousands of women, small children, and the elderly.

In addition to the destruction previously mentioned, it is important to note that according to the government media office in Gaza, as of November 22nd, 26 out of 33 hospitals in Gaza were no longer functioning, 278,000 homes were destroyed, and 311 schools suffered severe damage. These staggering numbers further emphasize the dire situation that the people of Gaza are currently facing. The support for a ceasefire in Gaza from Run The Jewels serves as a powerful testament to the growing sympathy and concern for the Palestinians who are enduring relentless airstrikes and ground attacks by Israel in Gaza, Palestine.
