USA: Two Microsoft employees fired after organising a vigil for Palestinians killed in Israel's war on Gaza

A spokesperson for Microsoft did not comment on the ‘No Azure for Apartheid’ campaign, its demands, or allegations of bias.

The spokesperson added the company was investigating the allegation that a social media post about the terminations was published by Stop Antisemitism before the employees were informed.
