Israeli actress Gal Gadot’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame was vandalized this week with politically charged graffiti, as international tensions over the ongoing conflict in Gaza increasingly spill into cultural and public spaces.
The phrase “baby killer” was scrawled above her name, and her surname was altered to “Greenstien”— a variation of her family’s original name “Greenstein,” reportedly changed to “Gadot” in the process of Hebraization.
Local media reported that the defacement occurred overnight, with no immediate comment from the actress or her representatives.
Stickers placed around the star carried statements such as “Israeli snipers target children,” reflecting the protest’s alignment with growing international criticism over the humanitarian toll of Israel’s military actions in Gaza.
The incident is part of a broader wave of demonstrations and symbolic actions targeting prominent figures and institutions seen as aligned with or supportive of Israel amid the escalating conflict.
