Per UKNIP:

In a surprising turn of events, Ford Motor Company’s official Twitter account appears to have been hacked, with several controversial posts shared earlier today. The tweets, including messages such as “Free Palestine 🇵🇸,” “Israel is a terrorist state,” and “ALL EYES ON GAZA,” sparked immediate reactions across social media, generating thousands of likes, retweets, and comments before they were taken down.

The breach occurred early this morning, with the first unauthorized post appearing approximately two hours ago. Subsequent tweets shared politically charged statements about the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, deviating sharply from the automaker’s usual branding and messaging.

One tweet, promoting the Ford F-Series, was posted shortly before the account was compromised, marking a stark contrast to the unexpected content that followed.

Ford has yet to release an official statement addressing the breach. However, the company’s Twitter account has since been restored to normal activity, with the controversial posts being deleted. It is expected that Ford’s cybersecurity team is investigating the incident alongside external experts to identify the source of the breach and ensure the security of its digital platforms.
