War on Gaza: Global boycott movement against Israel gains traction

The Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions – or BDS - movement that targets the Israeli occupation has been making waves amid the global protests against the war in Gaza.
Social media sites such as X and TikTok and even apps are naming brands that they say have ties to Israel.
Some governments are also taking action.

Al Jazeera’s Laura Khan reports.

Please understand that it is the backing from US that sustained Israel. Boycott US companies that support Israel

[carolematar]

Respect to all these millions of people who have a moral compass where the governments do not

[adamnoora-obvn]

It is unconstitutional to prohibit boycotts. But what’s even more ridiculous is for the government to go against its constitution for a foreign country’s interests.

I hate how Israel confuses antisemitism with anti-israeli policies

[thechallenge]

Support local companies and avoid genocide companies.

[Hassel_Shots]

We need to also and immediately start boycotting Hollywood, Netflix, Spotify etc…

I've been boycotting Israel since the 1967 war. I'm Jewish, but my history of 150 years my family lived in Jerusalem has always reminded me that this Nachba is totally unnecessary.

Thank God there are people with souls in this world! Thank you 🙏🙏🙏

I'm a Lebanese American in the US and boycotting our own products. With the Coke and Pepsi boycott I've stopped drinking soda and already lost weight. If I do want a burger and fries I go local not Zionist supporters. We're not all blind in America.

[tranquilhearts]

With 80% people had access to social media. If this continues they will hit really hard.

The boycotts are working at least in my area. A girl at work was talking about a friend of her mother's who is freaking out because she owns 10 or so ⭐$ coffee shops and it's losing so much money compared to last year. She's having to close stores and a good majority of her staff left to work for independent local coffee shops.

[brittlundkvist]

AND, of course, Boycott US companies, as well! PEOPLE POWER!

[MoKhan]

Alhumdulillah Many stores empty here in Malaysia

[Scumlord_Joe]

From the River to the Sea, free Palestine 🇵🇸.

[zrinka]

FREE free Palestina. Join in BDS movement.

[thisismetoday]

Once again for the people in the back: Criticism against Israel ≠ antisemitism. Israel is not and should not be exempt from accountability.

[MumuniHamza]

The US and Britain have been in support of this genocide against Gaza, history will forever remember this 😢.

[deffaly]

Thank you for standing for humanity
Free Palestine 🇵🇸✨💙
