Kylie Jenner recently made a post on her Instagram story expressing support for Israel, which was subsequently deleted. This action came in response to reports of an attack by Hamas on Israel over the weekend.
In contrast, Jenner’s recent Instagram posts, with her most recent one dating back four days, have garnered overwhelming support for the Palestinian cause.
This surge of support includes comments featuring the Palestinian flag and numerous appeals for the liberation of Palestine.
Jenner shared a post from the account, @StandWithUS. The post read, “now and always we stand with the people of Israel.”
According to Business Insider, Jenner removed the story about an hour after posting it, and pro-Palestinian comments continue to flood her Instagram.
Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu officially declared “war” on Sunday after Hamas launched the attack and called for a massive military response.
“Citizens of Israel, we are at war — not in an operation, not in rounds — at war,” Netanyahu said in a video message on Saturday.
Hamas terrorists have killed at least 600 Israelis and wounded at least 2,000 more in a surprise rocket attack. The group has also taken dozens of hostages within Gaza, and the Israeli military is preparing to engage.
Israel’s security cabinet also declared war on Sunday, a decision that unlocks “significant military activities,” Netanyahu’s office announced, according to the Times of Israel.
Jenner’s team did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
President Biden and other cabinet officials condemned the attacks on Saturday and reaffirmed the U.S.’ support for Israel.
