🚨 Reasons for Boycott

1. Commercial Presence in the Market and the El-Malha Store: H&M Group operates over 20 active stores in the Israeli market through its partnership with Match Retail. Particularly, opening a store in a shopping mall built on the lands of the Palestinian village of al-Malha, which was forcibly depopulated and destroyed during the 1948 Nakba (Catastrophe) in Jerusalem, constitutes the most concrete reason for boycott due to directly profiting from occupation and dispossession.
2. Corporate Silence on Human Rights Violations: Despite organizations such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch defining Israel's policies as "apartheid," H&M's disregard for its "Corporate Social Responsibility" principles by protecting its investments in this market and remaining silent on global human rights violations has drawn criticism.
