Ozil is the latest prominent sports personality to have shown support for Palestinians in the wake of the conflict in the region, following the attacks by the terror group, Hamas, in Israel on Saturday.

The conflict between Israel and Hamas has escalated, resulting in total military warfare in the Gaza Strip since last weekend.

According to a report from humanitarian bodies, the war had already claimed over 2,300 lives on both sides.

Reacting to the development, the former Germany international, in a post via his X account on Friday, also asked for an end to the war, which also showed his support for Palestine.

Ozil’s message went along with a photo which was captioned ‘#FreePalestine’.

“Praying for humanity. Praying for peace,” the 34-year-old wrote with two praying emojis and the Palestinian flag.

“Innocent people and especially innocent kids are losing their lives in the war – on both sides. It’s so heartbreaking & sad. PLEASE STOP THE WAR!!!
