NFL legend Tom Brady is the latest sports personality to issue a statement on the Israel-Hamas conflict on Friday, October 13.
The five-time Super Bowl MVP condemned the attacks in an official statement on Twitter.
"There should be no gray area about condemning Hamas' terrorist attacks on Israeli citizens," Brady stated. "No human deserves this."

The Israeli military continued with its airstrikes and are reportedly preparing for a possible ground invasion as they attempt to free about 150 hostages, the Associated Press reported.
