Israeli authorities submitted more than 186,000 requests to remove Arabic-language content from social media platforms, with platforms complying with 73.6 percent of them, Shehab Wire reported. The removals have triggered warnings from rights groups that the campaign targets freedom of expression and narrows space for Arabic content online.
Human rights organizations have cautioned that the deletion requests represent an attempt to restrict Arab voices on digital platforms, though the stated rationale behind Israeli government submissions was not detailed in available reports.
