TikTok removed the account of Israeli influencer Roi Star after determining his content violated the platform's policies on hate speech and bullying, following videos showing him confronting activists in the occupied West Bank.

In a January video, Star is seen entering a property used by activists in Ras Ein al-Auja in the Jordan Valley and pepper-spraying an activist who attempted to block his entry. The incident was filmed by both Star and the activists present.
