Pizza Hut is facing consumer boycotts after the chain reportedly provided free meals to soldiers on Israeli military bases.
On Jan. 19, Pizza Hut Israel reposted an Instagram story from user @alex_shults that depicted two smiling soldiers holding stacks of Pizza Hut pizza boxes, implying the chain had provided the meals to soldiers for free. The story expired after 24 hours and can no longer be viewed on Instagram.
Palestinian news agencies including the Quds News Network began resharing screenshots of the posts on Instagram and X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, sparking supporters of Palestinian rights to boycott the chain’s products.
