Aydan Özoguz, Vice President of the German Bundestag and a member of the SPD, is facing calls for her resignation after sharing a controversial Instagram post related to the Gaza conflict.

The post, originally from "Jewish Voice for Peace," was criticized for being anti-Israel, leading to a meeting of the Bundestag's Council of Elders.

Özoguz apologized, stating her intention was not to offend and emphasized her support for Israel's right to self-defense.

However, the CDU/CSU and other political figures, including the Israeli ambassador to Germany, have condemned the post, with some demanding her resignation.

Özoguz has not indicated any intention to step down, maintaining her focus on highlighting civilian suffering on both sides of the conflict.

The incident has sparked a broader debate on the responsibilities of public officials in their social media conduct.
