Palestinian model Bella Hadid removed from Adidas campaign

Adidas has just removed Palestinian-American model Bella Hadid from its latest advertising campaign for wearing a reissue of the SL72 sneakers, produced for the 1972 Munich Olympics, during which members of the Israeli team were killed by a Palestinian group.

Criticized by the Hebrew state and pro-Israelis for the choice of these sneakers in its latest advertising campaign, Adidas took the decision Friday to withdraw Bella Hadid from this project. The American model of Palestinian origin wore in the latest ad of the German brand a reissue of the SL72 sneakers, produced for the Munich Olympic Games in 1972, an event that evokes bad memories in Israel.
