Twitch has banned several high-profile Arab streamers for a panel that took place at TwitchCon last month .

The banned streamers include CapriSunnPapi, Fr0gan , Raffoulticket , DenimsTV , and Vio .

The 30-day bans were handed out seemingly simultaneously and came after days of social media dialogue accusing several Arab and pro-Palestinian Twitch streamers of being antisemitic.

The Anti-Defamation League was aware of several incidents on the social media platform and/or involving Twitch streamers in the past week .

It is unclear why Twitch chose to issue a ban for a panel that took place a month ago .

TwitchCon 2024 emphasized that the platform was “no place for hateful conduct”.
