(Web Desk) - Amir Khan is sending aid to Gaza amid the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine.
The United Nations has been appealing for a continuous flow of aid to Gaza and for Palestinian group Hamas to release dozens of hostages.
Amid the humanitarian crisis, Amir Khan is using his AK Foundation charity to send aid and says a “man on the ground” is already delivering food and essentials.
The former boxer also shared a link to his charity, urging people to send donations.
Since the crisis unfolded, Amir has shown his support for Palestine.
He said: “I condemn Hamas, but it is also a shame people of Palestine are being killed and starved as well.
“We have got a person on the ground who we have equipped and we got through, but it is a little difficult now. Hopefully, we can get the food and water to Gaza.
“I will go on Instagram and it’s just videos of innocent people being killed and it’s sad.
“More people should raise their voices because people are scared to talk about it so that more people can see what is really going on.”
Amir stated that being vocal was the one thing he could do to help spread the news.
He continued: “It does shock me as well because people who I thought would stand up for this are not saying anything, which has really upset me.
“Perhaps we can start to change people’s views, but the main thing is to put a stop to it.
“This is genocide and I have never seen this happen like this before.”
