Zara issued a public apology for an advertisement campaign that stirred controversy, leading to calls for a boycott by pro-Palestinian activists. The campaign featured statues wrapped in white, with some critics claiming a resemblance to images of corpses in shrouds from Gaza. Tens of thousands of complaints flooded Zara's Instagram, prompting the hashtag "#BoycottZara" to trend.
