Individuals were sharing the news of the bombings taking place in Gaza and highlighting the differential treatment of people, as Western media seem to be ignoring the attacks on Gazan people as they are not Western. One user stated, “Victims are not blue–eyed Europeans, so it’s not considered terrorism in the Western world”.
Another user tweeted: “ Dear World, while you are sleeping, Israeli warplanes are attacking 2 million Palestinians in Gaza at this moment. For Ukraine, the voices were raised all over the world, but for Palestine nothing. Aren’t Palestinians humans too.”
