The EU has warned Mark Zuckerberg over the spread of "disinformation" on Meta's social media platforms after Hamas' attack on Israel.
It told Meta, which owns Facebook and Instagram, it "has 24 hours" to take action and comply with European law. Meta must prove it has taken "timely, diligent and objective action".
Social media firms have seen a surge in misinformation about the conflict, including doctored images and mislabelled videos.
