Jenner wrote on X (formerly Twitter) on Saturday, "What an incredible way it has been to celebrate Shabbat. I am here in Israel, in Tel Aviv with you all. I am a friend, advocate, ally, and thank you to the Israeli people for making me family. We will prevail and liberate the poor Iranian people held hostage by terrorist thugs!"



 

In a subsequent post, Jenner praised Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

"The leadership by @IsraeliPM Bibi, and Israel’s closest ally President @realDonaldTrump will not allow this reckless violence towards so many continue. Israeli jets overhead in Iran now. (Bye bye terrorists)," Jenner wrote.

She added, "We will liberate Irans citizens Thank you to all allies! PEACE FOR ALL!"

Meanwhile, in another X post she wrote, "'Quiet' night in Tel Aviv. Pray for us all. We will prevail. I am happy to stand with Israel today, now more than ever."



 

"We are back in the shelters in Tel Aviv. This looks like it is the third wave of attack from Iran," she added.



 

Jenner's posts came as a group of Americans visiting Israel were prevented from leaving the country on Friday, June 13, as the military strike against Iran locked down the nation's airports, per the Daily Mail.

Jenner visited Tel Aviv last week to headline the June 13 Pride parade, and posted photos of herself in some of the most iconic spots in the region just before the unrest began.

Before visiting the country, she posted, "I am excited to share that I will be in Israel this week. I’m visiting the resilient people of Israel as the nation continues to recover and restore its place in the Middle East. Stay tuned!"
