Hugh Bonneville Blasts Israel’s Revocation of Gaza NGO Credentials as an “Abomination”
January 10, 2026
“THIS IS AN ABOMINATION.”
Hugh Bonneville refuses to be silent as Israel strips 37 humanitarian NGOs of their ability to operate in Gaza, organisations whose sole purpose is to save lives.
This isn’t politics.
It’s not theatre.
It’s the deliberate obstruction of food, medicine, and aid to civilians under siege.
When humanitarian access is treated as disposable, humanity itself is under attack.
And when public figures speak up, it’s because the moment demands it.

English Script:
Hugh Bonneville: I’m often told to shut up and stay in my lane because I’m just an actor. What do I know? And what about this conflict? And what about that conflict? Well, I may not speak up on everything, and I may not be as well-informed as you. But I do think I have as much right as you to say what I think. And I think that Israel’s decision to revoke the credentials of 37 NGOs currently working in Gaza is not only disgraceful, I think it’s an abomination. And I call on all my industry colleagues, and I call on all the people in my community, and that includes you, to speak up and appeal to our elected leaders and the UN to do more than just wring their hands. These NGOs are there to save lives, trust me. Action Against Hunger would be doing just as much work in Tel Aviv if it was surrounded and being pounded. So I do hope that sanity will prevail and that humanity will prevail. Do what you can. Say what you can.
