Australian cricketer Usman Khawaja has said “all lives aren’t equal” in a post on social media about the overnight strikes by Israel on Gaza that killed 408 Palestinians.
“Over 130 children killed in one day. For no reason, to break a ceasefire. Now imagine if that happened on the opposite side. The outrage that would occur. All lives aren’t equal,” the Australian batter said.
“For some reason, these kids will be footnotes or just numbers in history. But they too have names and mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers just like you,” he continued.
“We can’t normalise this type of brutality. Although I’m afraid we may already have. I can’t believe this is still happening,” he concluded.
