Elon Musk visits site of Auschwitz death camp


The X owner's visit follows criticism of the platform for not doing enough to fight antisemitism.

The Tesla boss, who took over the platform in October 2022, faced accusations of antisemitism in November when he replied, "You have said the actual truth" to a post on X that made the false claim that Jewish communities push hatred against white people. Later in November Mr Musk joined Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on a tour of the Kfar Aza kibbutz targeted by Hamas as part of the 7 October attacks in which 1,300 people were killed and about 240 taken back to Gaza as hostages. Today, senior political figures from European countries and Mr Musk will meet in Krakow, Poland "to discuss and find solutions to the astronomical rises in antisemitism affecting Europe," the EJA said.
