Cannes 2018: an actress denounces the Israeli repression in Gaza on the red carpet


Some come to show off their best dresses or tuxedos. Others to convey a political message. The French-Lebanese actress Manal Issa took advantage of his climb of the steps and his passage in front of the photographers, Tuesday, to deploy a sign in favor of Gazans. "Stop the Attack on Gaza" - "Stop the attack on Gaza" - could read on this white poster with red text. She was accompanied by Syrian director Gaya Jiji and Greco-South African director Etienne Kallos. A strong gesture that comes after the bloody repression of the Israeli army. 

Nearly 60 Palestinian protesters were killed by Israeli gunfire and 2400 wounded, making Monday 14 May the deadliest day of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict since 2014. A special meeting of the UN Human Rights Council is expected to to be held Friday in Geneva to examine "the deterioration of the human rights situation in the occupied Palestinian territories". The United Kingdom, Germany, Belgium and Switzerland have supported the idea of ​​investigations launched by UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres in late March, says AFP. 

Last year, it was the team of the film "Aquarius" who denounced a "coup" in Brazil during his climb of the stairs using, also, signs.
