Hollywood celebs Joaquin Phoenix, Quinta Brunson, Jon Stewart and more have urged President Joe Biden to demand a ceasefire in a joint statement as the war between Israel and Palestine continues.
The letter was signed by 58 people, a group that also included Cate Blanchett, Mahershala Ali, Riz Ahmed, Ramy Youssef and Kristen Stewart.
“We ask that, as President of the United States, you call for an immediate de-escalation and ceasefire in Gaza and Israel before another life is lost. More than 5,000 people have been killed in the last week and a half – a number any person of conscience knows is catastrophic.
