Mark Ruffalo walks back tweets accusing Israel of ‘genocide’

Published



Marvel actor Mark Ruffalo apologized Monday night for tweets where he accused Israel of committing “genocide” amid the most recent violence in the Middle East.

“I have reflected & wanted to apologize for posts during the recent Israel/Hamas fighting that suggested Israel is committing ‘genocide’. It’s not accurate, it’s inflammatory, disrespectful & is being used to justify antisemitism here & abroad. Now is the time to avoid hyperbole,” Ruffalo tweeted.
