The message said the removal was “because it goes against our Community Guidelines on harassment or bullying,” and cited notices of “graphic violence; hate speech, harassment and bullying; and nudity and sexual activity.”

A spokesperson from the Facebook company, which owns Instagram explained that her post was removed from social media, not because of the content based on users’ nationality or ethnicity, neither was it removed due to a reference to Palestine.

He clarified, “To protect the privacy of our community, we don’t allow people to post personal information, such as passport numbers, on Instagram. In this case, the passport number was blurred out, so this content shouldn’t have been removed,” read the statement. “We’ve restored the content and apologize to Bella for the mistake.”
