Google Pulls 'Bomb Gaza' Game After Backlash

Google has withdrawn a mobile phone game called "Bomb Gaza" from its app store after an angry backlash online.

The game invites players to "drop bombs and avoid killing civilians", and sees users control a fighter jet while dodging missiles from masked Hamas militants.

The game, which was developed by Play FTW, simulates the continuing violence between Israel and Hamas fighters in Gaza.

A spokesman for Google confirmed the game had been removed from the Google Play app store, saying: "We remove apps from Google Play that violate our policies".

Many users took to Play FTW's Facebook page to express their outrage at the game.

Carly Hassan Ali Madden wrote: "This is disgusting and sick!!! What is wrong with you people?"

Another user, Deen Mohammed Shajeeb, wrote: "plz quit this game from facebook".

Israel launched a military operation in Gaza on July 8 with the stated intention of ending "persistent" Hamas rocket attacks over the border.

It subsequently launched a ground offensive aimed at destroying cross-border Hamas tunnels.

More than 1,880 Palestinians and 64 Israeli soldiers have lost their lives since the conflict began.
