Following President Donald Trump's executive order to ban immigration from seven different countries, Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky took to Twitter to offer free housing.

The home rental site, which operates in more than 191 countries, is currently seeking anyone who wants to open their home to immigrants or refugees blocked by the new measure.

"Airbnb is providing free housing to refugees and anyone not allowed in the US. Stayed tuned for more, contact me if urgent need for housing," Chesky tweeted Saturday.

A new page on the site reads: "Airbnb is working with partners around the world to support refugees and those who may have unexpectedly been affected by the recent travel ban into the United States. If you would like to help by hosting these people for free, please add your listing here. If needed, we will reach out to you over the coming days to verify availability and request your support."

"Not allowing countries or refugees into America is not right, and we must stand with those who are affected," Chesky posted Saturday on Twitter. "Open doors brings all of US together. Closing doors further divides US. Let's all find ways to connect people, not separate them."

Trump also took to his personal Twitter account Monday and cited an airline technical problem as the reason for the crowds of stalled immigrants: "Only 109 people out of 325,000 were detained and held for questioning. Big problems at airports were caused by Delta computer outage."

Protesters at some of the biggest airports in the country joined in support of travelers who were not allowed to enter the U.S.
