American rapper Cardi B has urged for a ceasefire between Israel and the Palestinian militant group Hamas.
Since the conflict began on October 7, thousands have been killed and many displaced.
Cardi B has called on the U.S. government to intervene, stating she would only endorse a presidential candidate if a ceasefire is achieved in Gaza.
Speaking during a recent social media session with fans, she said, “I want a ceasefire. I want a peaceful treaty between Palestine and Israel. I want innocent people to stop dying, that’s all I want. If that can happen, I’ll support anybody.”
Previously, in an interview with Rolling Stone in May, Cardi B mentioned she wouldn’t vote in the upcoming election if the major candidates remained incumbent President Joe Biden and his predecessor, Donald Trump.
However, President Joe Biden stepped down as the Democratic Party candidate on Sunday, endorsing his vice president, Kamala Harris, as the party’s flagbearer. Cardi B welcomed this development on social media, saying she anticipated it.
