KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 5 – The Prime Minister’s Office has summoned representatives of Meta Platforms Inc (Meta) today to explain the removal of content related to Palestinian issues from Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s social media platforms.
According to sources, this includes content related to the assassination of Hamas Political Bureau chief Ismail Haniyeh, which was removed and blocked on platforms like the Prime Minister’s Facebook and Instagram.
It is understood that the Prime Minister, who was upset over the removal of his posts, also wants further explanations from Meta on the matter.
The meeting, expected to take place this afternoon, will also seek clarification on the disruptions reported during a live broadcast on Facebook of the Himpunan Pembebasan Palestin rally yesterday at Axiata Arena Stadium, Bukit Jalil, which was attended by more than 15,000 people.
