'Hollywood Stars Call on Biden to Secure Israel-Gaza Ceasefire'

Dozens of Hollywood actors and artists, including Jon Stewart and Joaquin Phoenix, have written a letter to U.S. President Biden urging him to press for a ceasefire in Israel and Gaza. The letter, signed by nearly 60 celebrities, calls for an end to the bombing of Gaza, the safe release of hostages, and the facilitation of humanitarian aid. The actors emphasize the importance of not remaining silent and cite UN Emergency Relief Chief Martin Griffiths' comment that "History is watching." Biden has expressed his belief that aid trucks will reach Gaza in the next 24 to 48 hours.
