Madonna made a political speech while embarking on a desert horse race amid her lavish family getaway in Morocco on Friday.
The singer, 67, was with her boyfriend Akeem Morris, 29, and several of her children, including Rocco, 25, David, 20, Mercy, 19, and twins Stella and Estere, 13.
Taking to Instagram, Madonna shared a clip of their daring escapades as they rode stallions through the dune as well as a glimpse of their desert camp.
The Papa Don’t Preach hitmaker looked effortlessly stylish in a faux fur trimmed padded jacket and shades, before swapping her cowboy hat for a safety helmet.
Making sure to touch up her lipstick, she later joined her kids in donning traditional headscarves as their travels took them to a nearby beach.
However, despite the carefree getaway, Madonna captioned the video with an impassioned statement in support for the people of Iran amid conflict in the country.

Over the last few weeks, mass protests against the regime have broken out across Iran that have left 2,500 protesters dead.
Madonna penned: ‘Hold Tight ………. I cannot think of a more relevant phrase than this as we enter the year of the Fire Horse! As I reflect on my time in Morocco over the holidays I think of all the people in IRAN who are fighting a much needed, Revolution and willing to die for what they believe in.
‘We take so much for granted. Myself included. The freedom to travel the world. To wear what I want to wear.’
She went on: ‘To ride a horse across the desert. To speak Freely and not be silenced by punishment, torture, and possibly death. To sing. To dance. To choose my spiritual path, not someone else’s.. The women of Iran do not have this freedom.
‘I stand with them. The people of Iran have not known freedom for centuries I cannot claim to truly know the suffering that has been endured but my thoughts and prayers are with the people of Iran. The time is now. Hold Tight!
Before adding: ‘I stand with Iran. Let their voices be heard.. FREE IRAN!’
It comes after Madonna’s previous post from the trip showing her putting on a loved-up display with her toy boy boyfriend.
