MODERATORS
This is the best summary I could come up with:
It urged CEO Shou Zi Chew in a letter to "urgently step up" efforts, and spell out "within the next 24 hours" how it is complying with European law.
The firm's chief executive Linda Yaccarino responded by telling the bloc it had removed or flagged "tens of thousands of pieces of content" since Hamas attacked Israel.
The EU declined to comment on whether it had received a response from Meta, but a European Commission spokesperson said "contacts are ongoing" with the company's compliance teams.
A Meta spokesperson told the BBC: "After the terrorist attacks by Hamas on Israel on Saturday, we quickly established a special operations centre staffed with experts, including fluent Hebrew and Arabic speakers, to closely monitor and respond to this rapidly evolving situation."
"Our teams are working around the clock to keep our platforms safe, take action on content that violates our policies or local law, and coordinate with third-party fact checkers in the region to limit the spread of misinformation.
The Digital Services Act (DSA) requires so-called "very large online platforms" to proactively remove "illegal content", and show they have taken measures to do so if requested.
