Amy Schumer has emerged as one of the most vocal celebrities in support of Israel’s assault on Gaza, launched in response to a surprise attack by Hamas on 7 October.
The comedian and actor is using her large Instagram platform to campaign on behalf of Israel’s operation and call for the release of hostages held in Gaza. She’s also sliding into the DMs of other actors who criticised her posts and prompted pushback from Dr Bernice King, the daughter of Martin Luther King Jr.
