Bardem's latest social media post echoes and intensifies sentiments he has expressed in recent months.
At the San Sebastian Film Festival in 2024, Bardem declared that he was "no longer comfortable being silent on Gaza".
Bardem has gone further, labeling the situation as "genocide taking place in front of our eyes in 4K" and accusing the 'Israeli' government of "crimes against humanity" and "violations of international law" at the F1 movie premiere in New York and during an appearance on ABC's The View.

‘Israeli' army accuses journalist of ‘Hollywood' fakery in Gaza starvation coverage
Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif, a correspondent for Al Jazeera, has issued a public statement condemning renewed threats and incitement by the 'Israeli' military over his reporting from war-torn Gaza. In a post shared on his social media accounts, Al-Sharif wrote: 'Once again, the Israeli army spokesperson has launched a campaign of threats and incitement against me because of my work as a journalist with Al Jazeera. I reaffirm: I, Anas Al-Sharif, am a journalist with no political affiliations. My only mission is to report the truth from the ground, as it is, without bias. At a time when a deadly famine is ravaging Gaza, speaking the truth has become, in the eyes of the occupation, a threat.' His statement comes in response to a post by Avichay Adraee, the Arabic-language spokesperson for the 'Israeli' army, who accused Al-Sharif of fabricating a report that recently went viral. The footage showed Al-Sharif emotionally reporting live from outside a hospital in Gaza, where a woman fainted on camera, due to hunger, prompting the journalist to break down in tears. Adraee dismissed the scene as staged, calling it a 'Hollywood production - Gaza branch,' in a video posted to X. He accused Al Jazeera of colluding with Hamas and referred to Al-Sharif's tears as 'crocodile tears,' claiming the moment was a 'carefully planned shot.' He also repeated a common narrative by 'Israeli' officials, blaming Hamas for Gaza's suffering by alleging it 'steals humanitarian aid,' while ignoring 'Israel's' ongoing blockade that has largely halted aid entry.

Far-right ‘Israeli' ministers urge Netanyahu to end talks, fully occupy Gaza
Far-right 'Israeli' ministers Itamar Ben Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich on Wednesday called on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to halt ongoing negotiations with Hamas and instead impose full control over the Gaza Strip. Speaking at the Knesset, National Security Minister Ben Gvir warned against 'reckless deals,' urging Netanyahu to pursue 'complete and absolute control' over Gaza. He also advocated expanding settlement and 'sovereignty' efforts in the occupied West Bank. Finance Minister Smotrich echoed these demands, saying in a social media post that it was time to 'permanently shut the door' on any partial deal and order a military invasion of Gaza. He claimed that only a full occupation would secure the release of 'Israeli' captives or destroy Hamas. אדוני ראש הממשלה, על רקע סירובו המסתמן של חמאס הגיע העת לסגור את הדלת סופית בפני עסקה חלקית ולהורות לצה"ל להסתער על כיבוש עזה ותכנית ההפרדה ההומניטרית, עד להכנעת חמאס ושחרור כל החטופים ללא תנאי או השמדתו המוחלטת. הגיע עת ניצחון! — בצלאל סמוטריץ' (@bezalelsm) July 23, 2025 Smotrich further pushed what he called a 'humanitarian separation plan' to subjugate Hamas and forcibly transfer Palestinians out of Gaza. This comes one day after Smotrich called for what he termed a 'security annexation' of northern Gaza at at a Knesset conference titled 'The Gaza Riviera – From Vision to Reality" on Tuesday. Smotrich said there is a 'tremendous opportunity' to begin reestablishing Jewish settlements in the Strip. He also claimed the US had given a 'green light' to transform Gaza into a 'Riviera city' following full occupation and displacement of its population, remarks that Washington has not confirmed. The comments come as indirect ceasefire and captive exchange talks between 'Israel' and Hamas continue in Doha, mediated by Qatar and Egypt with US support. These efforts began on July 6 amid growing international pressure to end the war in Gaza.
