A stormy day passes for our overseas representative Gal Gadot. On Tuesday, she shared with her 109 million Instagram followers a multi-part story about the war being waged against Israel, which read, among other things: "Killing innocent Palestinians is horrific. Killing innocent Israelis is horrific. If you don't think the same, I think you need to ask yourself why."
The loaded text provoked great anger among many and led to an onslaught of reactions against it in Israel as well, which led to its removal from the story a few hours later. Even after the story was removed, the anger and harsh criticism from Israel against Gadot did not subside, and after harsh criticism she received from Yoav Eliassi (The Shadow), the one who came out strongly on Wednesday morning was media personality Ofira Asayag, who shared the hidden story on her Instagram and wrote: "Gal Gadot, you wrote and deleted! That's a good thing. I've held myself up several times not to answer you because you're worried about your livelihood and your career, and that's okay. But this time you crossed the line.

"Come out into the field to see decapitated babies, murdered girls, dead soldiers and grieving families. Those who murdered us are a cruel and Israel-hating people. Sit quietly, better for all of us. You live in whatever movie you're Hollywood and whenever you want you're Israeli. Recalculate your route," she signed angrily.
She later called her a "detached piece of cheek" and even shared the story posted by model Gigi Hadid, who is known to often speak out against Israel with her family, adding: "Even she is more normal than you. Shame on you," tagging Gadot.
Gadot did not remain indifferent to Asayag's harsh words, and a few hours later she replied to her in a personal address in Hebrew: "Ofira, my love, I am sorry if my words were not understood as I intended. All I want is to talk to Israel in the world and show the horrors we are experiencing and help gain global support against all our critics. I will continue to do everything I can to cry out Israel's cry from everywhere. My heart is bleeding and I don't know my soul because of the sorrow over what is happening. And to my people, I have no doubt that we will win. The people of Israel are alive."
