Tunisian actress steps down as WFP ambassador, citing war in Gaza

Hend Sabry, a Tunisian actress, has announced she is stepping down from her role as Goodwill Ambassador for the World Food Programme (WFP), citing the ongoing war in Gaza.

"Today a pause in fighting was announced in Gaza. But in the end, it is too little too late. More than 14,000 people were killed, more than 1.6 million are homeless, half the buildings destroyed," she said in a social media post announcing her resignation.
