00:00 MEDA's independent oversight board says it will review how the company handled violent
00:05 content on its social media platforms in two cases involving hostage-taking and bombing
00:10 in the Israel-Hamas conflict.
00:12 The cases will be the first to use a new expedited review mechanism that requires the board to
00:17 decide within 30 days instead of the usual several months.
00:21 The board's decision to take on the cases comes as social media platforms are flooded
00:25 with violent, hateful and misleading content about the war.
00:29 Meantime, the head of Swiss medical charity Medecins Sans Frontieres, or Doctors Without
00:34 Borders, says Gaza faces a catastrophe extending far beyond a humanitarian crisis.
00:40 The medical group says, "Very soon people will be in a mode of just trying to survive,
00:44 which will come with very severe consequences."
00:47 The United Nations says 85% of the 2.3 million population in Gaza are homeless due to the
00:54 ongoing war.
