The fashion brand Zara has faced significant backlash on social media, with its advertisement deemed offensive and exploitative of the Palestinian genocide issue.

Previously, Zara shared several photos of its latest clothing line, Zara Atelier. The clothes were worn by model Kristen McMenamy, who posed with a mannequin draped in white cloth, resembling a deceased person in a Muslim funeral.

The model also posed against a backdrop of wooden boxes, rubble, rocks, and pieces of cardboard resembling a map of Palestine.

According to Jordanian news site *Roya News*, the photos drew public criticism for using disturbing imagery.

“This is disgusting! You are making a campaign based on the genocide that happened in Gaza. Innocent people are dying!”, said a social media user, as reported by *Roya News* on Saturday, December 9, 2023.

The advertisement prompted many netizens to call for a boycott of Zara, a brand previously not associated with pro-Israel companies.

Twitter and Instagram were flooded with hashtags urging consumers to reconsider their loyalty to the Zara brand.

However, to date, Zara management has not responded or issued a statement regarding the controversy.
