Google removes ‘Bomb Gaza’ mobile game from its app store after prompting complaints – but not before it is downloaded 1,000 times
A phone app in which players drop bombs on Gaza from an Israeli military plane has been removed from Google Play following complaints.
Bomb Gaza, which instructs users to ‘drop bombs and avoid killing civilians’, was reportedly downloaded around 1,000 times before it was pulled by Google’s app store.
It was uploaded to the app store under the name of developer PlayFTW on Thursday but was met with outrage by Google Play users, calling the game ‘sick’ and ‘disgusting’ for mimicking the ongoing conflict between Hamas and Israel.
