Meta faces questions over ads glorifying Ratko Mladić

Meta enables the distribution of content featuring Ratko Mladić through its paid advertising system.

The content ranges from the commercial sale of T-shirts to posts that glorify him or downplay his responsibility for genocide and other war crimes in Bosnia and Herzegovina, CE Report quotes FENA.

Mladić was convicted of genocide and other war crimes for his role during the Bosnian War.

Experts note that the platform relies on users to flag problematic posts.

Among the ads that appeared on Facebook and Instagram was one by the "Otacastvo" page, which used Mladić's image to promote and sell T-shirts.

The ad was removed shortly after Detektor contacted the page, BIRN reports.
