The band wrote on their Instagram story: ‘We do not believe that support for our Palestinian friends and family equals anti-Semitism.
‘We love our Jewish friends and family and pray for the safe return of the remaining hostages.
‘That being said, we simply cannot support a genocide. We stand in solidarity with those calling for an immediate and permanent ceasefire.’
