Following public outcry, Google takes down 'Bomb Gaza' game app from Playstore

Explore Business Standard

After a game app asking users to launch missiles on Hamas militants created a furore on the World Wide Web, Google has reportedly taken down the app from its Playstore.
The game, "Bomb Gaza," was uploaded last week and tasked players to drop bombs on cartoonish black-clad Hamas militants and avoid killing kids and civilians dressed in white, Fox News reported.
The search engine removed the app by Monday evening after it was attacked by android-users for its insensitivity.
