Annie Lennox has called for a ceasefire amid the first anniversary of the Israel-Palestine conflict, writing of how humans are “capable of tremendous achievements and indescribable atrocities”.In a post shared to Instagram yesterday (October 7), the Eurythmics singer referenced the attack that happened a year ago, when over a thousand Israelis were killed by Hamas forces at a music festival.Following the attack, the Israeli cabinet formally declared war against Hamas, leading to the most significant escalation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in several decades and triggering unprecedented and seemingly unrelenting violence.According to a report by Reuters, Palestinian health authorities have said Israel’s ground and air campaign in Gaza has killed more than 41,500 people.
