A host of celebrities have denounced rising anti-Asian violence after shootings in the Atlanta area left eight people dead, six of them Asian women.

Mindy Kaling, Daniel Dae Kim and Olivia Munn are among those speaking out against the increase in anti-Asian violence, including shootings in the Atlanta area that left six Asian women dead.Authorities arrested a suspect, Robert Aaron Long, 21, Cherokee County sheriff's Capt. Jay Baker said Tuesday.

Long told investigators he had a sexual addiction and saw the spas as a temptation he needed to eliminate, officials said at a news conference Wednesday. It's unclear if the businesses that were attacked had any ties to sex work. The suspect told investigators the attacks were not motivated by race, but Atlanta police Chief Rodney Bryant added that it's"still early in this investigation so we cannot make that determination at this moment."

South Korea’s foreign ministry told NBC News that four of the women who died were of Korean origin, but their nationalities have yet to be verified.
