Bill Gates’s Equestrian daughter Jennifer Gates shares a message of love

In a recent Instagram story, Jenn Gates shared a post by Jay Shetty via Mr. Jeromme Trammel on Twitter that read, “Reminder: It only takes one second to say: I love you. Can we talk? I apologize You were right I don’t want to be at odds Stop letting pride & ego hold you hostage from the happiness in life”.

Jennifer wrote alongside the story, “With all the division and despair in real life and online, felt like I could use this reminder. I believe we are each learning and doing our best in an ever-changing and complex environment. My heart goes out to everyone impacted particularly my Jewish, Palestinian, Israeli & Muslim friends. I’m sending so much love everyone’s way”. This story comes as the situation between Israel and Palestine gets deadlier by the minute.

The devastating loss and destruction

The war broke out nearly a week ago when Hamas fighters fired thousands of missiles into Israel. They also opened fire on innocent concertgoers in Israel near the border and took nearly 150 hostages. Since then, Israel has declared war on the Gaza Strip in an effort to seize and capture the Hamas fighters. A recent update came on Sunday, the 15th of October, when the Gaza Health Ministry said that 2,329 Palestinians have lost their lives in the ongoing war, making it the deadliest of all the five Gaza wars for Palestinians.

For Israel, this marks the deadliest war since the 1973 battle against Syria and Egypt. More than 600,000 Gazans have fled to the southern part of the Gaza Strip, near the Egyptian border city of al-Arish. Many renowned people have taken a stand and have urged the need for peace and solidarity with both nations.
