The Israeli president showed the meeting between Tesla owner Elon Musk and Herzog.
Herzog said he would join the assembly through some circle of relatives of the hostages held in Gaza, The Times of Israel reported.
He added that it would “underscore the need for action to fight anti-Semitism online. “
Musk, however, has recently come under fire for his use of a virulently anti-Semitic trope about X, as well as the platform’s utter failure to stamp out misinformation and rampant hate speech amid the ongoing war, The Times of Israel reported.
The failure to combat anti-Semitism in the application and the comments considered anti-Semitic, shared through Musk himself, have led several advertisers such as Apple and Disney to cut spending on the microblogging site.
Amid the dispute over the approval of an “anti-Semitic” post on X, the platform’s owner and Tesla CEO Elon Musk said the social media platform would register a “thermonuclear lawsuit” from media watchdog “Media Matters,” claiming it was “completely misrepresented. “experience” and “freedom of expression undermined. “
Musk has been in Israel lately and is also expected to meet with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during his visit.
Earlier this week, Musk announced that X would donate all advertising and subscriptions “associated with the war in Gaza” to hospitals in Israel and the Red Cross/Red Crescent in Gaza.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Musk wrote: “We will track how the budget is spent and pass it through the Red Cross/Red Crescent. More productive concepts are welcome. We’ll have to care about the innocent, regardless. “race, creed, faith, or anything else. ” (AND I)
