Ramadan boycott: Muslims in Malaysia and Indonesia shun Israeli dates

Ahead of Ramadan, Malaysia's national newswire reminded citizens through social media to avoid purchasing boycotted goods, specifically mentioning dates from Israel, the West Bank, and Jordan Valley. The campaign has similarly resonated in Indonesia, the world's largest Muslim-majority country, where religious authorities have called for a boycott against Israeli dates. This collective movement in Malaysia and Indonesia represents a significant consumer stance during Ramadan, emphasizing solidarity with Palestine.
