London: Shahid Afridi’s reaction to the viral photo with officials of a pro-Israel organization has come out.
In a statement on social media, Shahid Afridi said that people are requested not to believe what has been uploaded. The so-called fans came to take selfies while walking in a street in Manchester, United Kingdom. Moments later, the same photo was uploaded as an endorsement of Zionism. I get to take pictures with fans from all over the world and this situation was no different.
Shahid Afridi further said that a picture shared by a controversial organization should not be considered as any kind of support from my side. It is heart-wrenching to see the suffering of innocent lives in Palestine. I pray for the end of this war and the freedom of the Palestinians.
A picture of Shahid Afridi with officials of a controversial pro-Israel organization went viral on social media.

Social media users showed mixed reactions to Shahid Afridi’s picture. Some users demanded Shahid Afridi to sue the organization for attributing the controversial statement to him if he did not know the organization.
