Wednesday star Jenna Ortega has once again expressed her unwavering solidarity with the Palestinian people, calling them her heroes for their resilience and courage amid ongoing violence and global indifference.

During an interview with French magazine Gala at an event in Paris, the 21-year-old Hollywood actress praised the strength and determination of Palestinians, stating, “I consider the people of Palestine my heroes. Despite the world’s silence, they continue to raise their voices.”

Ortega emphasized the importance of amplifying Palestinian voices so that the world can truly understand their suffering and ongoing struggle. “Their voices need to be heard louder,” she added passionately.

This is not the first time Jenna Ortega has spoken out in support of Palestinians. Back in June, she shared posts on Instagram highlighting the oppression in Iran and Palestine, writing: “My heart is heavy. The cries of Palestinians are buried in daily headlines.”

Her repeated advocacy for Palestinian rights has made waves across international and social media, sparking conversations around celebrity activism and the role of public figures in highlighting global human rights issues.

According to recent figures released by the Palestinian Ministry of Health, at least 67,160 people have been killed and 169,679 injured in Gaza since Israeli airstrikes began in October 2023. The humanitarian crisis continues to deepen, with calls growing for international attention and accountability.

Jenna Ortega’s continued stance has been praised by fans and human rights activists around the world. Her courage reflects a growing trend among the younger generation of international stars who are using their platforms to speak openly about global injustices—often in defiance of industry silence or backlash.

In an era of increasing celebrity influence, Ortega’s principled support for Palestine stands out as both powerful and deeply personal.
