Several Arab celebrities have joined a campaign initiated on Twitter against TikTok, in response to the app’s bias and alleged removal of content and posts supportive of Saudi Arabia and other countries.

The “Boycott TikTok” hashtag began trending in Saudi Arabia after social media users noticed that their accounts were either being suspended or pro-Saudi content being removed.

Additionally, media reports highlight that the TikTok account of a Palestinian man was removed on Friday after posting a video praising Saudi aid amid the ongoing aggressions in Gaza.

Emirati artist Ahlam announced her boycott in solidarity with Saudi Arabia in addition to several other celebrities.

Arab influencers also called for resistance against the censorship imposed by social media platforms, which block content supporting Palestine and videos documenting the heinous crimes against the Palestinian people in Gaza at the hands of Israeli forces.
