Chris Evans Breaks Silence On Infamous Photo Of Him Appearing To Autograph A Bomb


The Marvel star has said it was a training model, not an actual bomb. This has not gone down well with everyone.

Evans added a screenshot of an AFP Fact Check story posted earlier this year, which stated that the weapon in the shot was not destined for the Gaza strip as some had speculated. The AFP stated that the photo was taken “as [Evans] and other celebrities visited troops in Turkey in 2016, years before the militant group’s deadly attack on Israel plunged the region into conflict.” The Australian website gives context to the picture, reporting that Evans joined other celebrities including Scarlett Johansson in a visit to US troops stationed in Turkey in 2016.
