X Chief executive officer Linda Yaccarino said on Thursday that the social media platform has removed hundreds of "Hamas-affiliated accounts" and taken action to remove or label tens of thousands of pieces of content since the attack on Israel.
"We continue to respond promptly to law enforcement requests from around the world, including EU member states," she said in a letter on Wednesday to EU Commissioner Breton, posted on X, formerly known as Twitter.
