"Meta and Google Withdraw from Tech Summit Amid Accusations of Israeli War Crimes"

Meta and Google have withdrawn from the Web Summit, a major tech event, after the organizer, Paddy Cosgrave, criticized Israel's actions following the Hamas attacks. Cosgrave apologized for his remarks and condemned Hamas's attack on Israel. The boycott by Meta and Google follows other companies and tech figures, including Intel, Siemens, Amy Poehler, and Gillian Anderson, who have also pulled out of the event. The Web Summit is set to take place in Lisbon in November.
