Overview

  • Pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian protesters delayed Gal Gadot's Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony by 15 minutes, chanting and displaying opposing signs and flags.
  • The protests occurred as renewed Israeli airstrikes in Gaza reportedly killed over 400 Palestinians, following the breakdown of a ceasefire agreement.
  • Gadot, the first Israeli actor to receive a star on the Walk of Fame, avoided addressing the protests in her speech, focusing instead on gratitude and her Israeli roots.
  • Police detained several protesters for crowd control after a pro-Palestinian demonstrator allegedly stole an Israeli flag, but no arrests were made.
  • The event underscored Hollywood's role as a platform for global political conflicts, with Gadot's support for Israel drawing both praise and criticism.
