The new demonstrations at Apple Stores centered around accusations of ignoring violence in both the Democratic Republic of Congo in Africa, as well as the ongoing hostilities between Gaza and Israel.
The protesters accuse Apple of being complicit in the humanitarian crises in both conflict zones. A protester identified as “Lucy” by the Bristol Post news site was quoted as saying they were protesting “against Apple’s complicity in the Congelese and Palestinian genocides.”
