A recent investigation into Meta’s content policies has exposed a systemic imbalance in how the platform moderates the Israel-Palestine conflict.

UN Security Council Resolution 2817 has come under fire for bias, condemning Iranian strikes while ignoring the Gulf states’ role in hosting the initial U.S. and Israeli attacks.

Sudan faces the world’s most severe humanitarian crisis, with 21.2 million people suffering from acute food insecurity and 12 million displaced.
