After uploading a photo to her 27.1million followers while sporting a green leather racing jacket with black and white highlights, in colors some claimed were reminiscent of the black, white, green, and red seen on Palestine's flag, Alicia was accused of using a coded message to signal her support for Hamas.
Friends of the musician said she was 'horrified' by how her post was interpreted and that's why she promptly deleted her photo.
On Monday night, Alicia addressed the topic in an Instagram Stories and refuted any association between the paragliding post and remark on the day's events.
She claimed that the prior post she had published had absolutely nothing to do with the tragic recent deaths of innocent people. "My heart is breaking... I stand in prayer for peace."
Alicia and her husband, who, according to TMZ, reside close to San Diego, have a home close to a popular paragliding location. Israeli-born music manager Guy Oseary supported the performer on Instagram.

'There was a certain word in her message that our community at this very terrible moment find highly triggering, but it was totally not connected in any way,' he stated, referring to the usage of the word paragliding.
Alicia was shocked to realize what the word indicated and promptly took it down, Oseary continued.
