EU says opening investigation into Musk’s X over disinformation on Israel-Gaza war

The European Commission says it is opening an investigation into Elon Musk’s X social media platform, formerly Twitter, to determine if it has allowed the spread of disinformation around the Israel-Gaza conflict.

The Commission says it has sent a formal request for information to X in what is a first procedure launched under Brussels’ new European Digital Services Act (DSA), two days after it sent a warning letter from Commissioner Thierry Breton.
