The Russia-Ukraine conflict has reportedly escalated leaving the civilians troubled and many of them have been forced to take up arms. Many iconic celebrities have voiced their support for Ukraine, which continues to be under attack by Russian forces for many days now.

Amid all the social upheaval in Ukraine, people from other parts of the world like supermodel Gigi Hadid - who, in the past several weeks, has walked the runway for fall 2022 shows in fashion capitals of the world - has shared her thoughts on it.
In an emotional message via Instagram, Hadid wrote, “Having a set Fashion Month schedule has meant that my colleagues and I often present new fashion collections during heartbreaking and traumatic times in history. We don’t have control over most of our work schedules, but we would like to walk ‘for’ something.”
She also went on to mention that she would be “following in the footsteps of [her] friend Mica Argañaraz” and “pledging to donate [her] earnings from the Fall 2022 shows to aid those suffering from the war in Ukraine, as well as continuing to support those experiencing the same in Palestine”.
“Our eyes and hearts must be open to all human injustice. May we all see each other as brothers and sisters, beyond politics, beyond race, beyond religion. At the end of the day, innocent lives pay for war — not leaders,” she wrote.
The 26-year-old concluded by writing, “HANDS OFF UKRAINE. HANDS OFF PALESTINE. PEACE. PEACE. PEACE.”
Well, the model’s fans were impressed by her determination to help people living in crisis in war-torn areas which is ultimately a step towards humanity.
