I've been using Twitter exclusively for IT and tech over the last two years. Never been following anything political there.
Today, for the first time, a political ad from @diraalwatan (official account for Saudi ministry of defence) promoting war in Yemen sneaked into my feed:
I do and did tolerate the way Twitter takes actions in political ways lately, blocking accounts they consider to be fake news, state propaganda, etc. although I find it somehow controversive and very subjective. But having ads promoting war in Yemen just shocked me badly!

How it this ad even entering my feed?
