"Facebook Blocks Jerusalem" campaign kick-starts in protest of Meta\'s censorship of the Palestinian narrative

23-11-2021

Palestinian journalists and activists have launched a campaign titled "Facebook Blocks Jerusalem" to raise their voices and express their rejection of Meta's recent resumption of its years-long censorship of pro-Palestinian content on its Facebook platform, today said Sada Social Center in a press release. This campaign comes in the aftermath of a massive wave by Meta that saw the blocking and/or restriction of many pages belonging to Palestinian media outlets and thousands of personal accounts for Palestinian citizens and journalists on Facebook, it said. The wave has mainly targeted the pages of Palestinian media outlets and journalists in particular due to their tireless coverage of the ongoing Israeli human rights violations across occupied Palestine, including Jerusalem, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.
