The EU has warned Elon Musk that X is being used to spread 'disinformation' about Hamas' attack on Israel.

EU industry chief Thierry Breton says Musk's platform has been used to disseminate illegal content and disinformation within the European Union.

Musk responded by claiming X's company policy was that everything is open source and transparent.

UK correspondent Gavin Grey says the Digital Services Act (DSA) requires X to remove and address illegal content or material that violates their standards.
