“@therealdebramessing is a badass. Not only has she been speaking out when others have been silent, she came into a war zone today to see one of the terror tunnels built by Hamas,” he said in a social media post.

He added, “She is a Queen of our people and she deserves all the love.”

In various social media posts shared by Kern, Messing is seen greeting soldiers and thanking them.

“Thank you for everything, for what you’re doing. You are heroes. I want you to know that everyone in the United States is – they’re thinking of you, and thanking you and standing by you, and praying for you. Stay safe,” she said to an IDF soldier.

New York Post columnist Douglas Murray, one of the journalists on the trip, praised the actress as “amazing.”

Messing is one of several Hollywood stars coming out in support of Israel amid its war against Hamas.
