Summary
YouTube deleted over 700 videos documenting Israeli human rights violations by removing the accounts of three prominent Palestinian human rights organizations - Al-Haq, Al Mezan Center for Human Rights, and the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights. The deletions occurred in early October and included documentary content about Israel's actions in Gaza and the West Bank, including investigations into the killing of a Palestinian American journalist and destruction of Palestinian homes. The article suggests this represents YouTube's capitulation to Trump-era sanctions against these organizations.
