Is Dua Lipa supporting Palestine?
The Israel-Palestine conflict is one of the most terrifying conflicts this year. Besides this, a lot of false information is disseminated on social media sites. Users are sharing the statement of Dua Lipa and claiming that she is expressing her grief for war affected Palestine.
The claim made by users
A prominent user named Jackson Hinkle shared a picture of Dua Lipa on X and wrote “DUA LIPA stands with PALESTINE! “With each passing day, my heart aches for the people of Palestine. Grief as I witness the unprecedented suffering in Gaza, where 2.2 million souls, half of them children, endure unimaginable hardships.”
The claim made by other users
In addition to that, many other users also shared the same picture of Dua Lipa while making similar claims.
Fact Check
To know the truth of the viral claim, DFRAC team searched some keywords on Google. We found media reports by The Express Tribune and Global Village Space stating,
Dua Lipa recently took to her Instagram Story and said “With each passing day, my heart aches for the people of Israel and Palestine. Grief for the lives lost in the horrifying attacks in Israel. Grief as I witness the unprecedented suffering in Gaza, where 2.2 million souls, half of them children, endure unimaginable hardships.”
Conclusion
Therefore, it is clear by the DFRAC’s fact check that the claim made by the user that Dua Lipa said “My heart aches for Palestine” is misleading as she addressed both Israel and Palestine in her full statement”.
