Citi Trading Desk Head Forced to Delete Post on Gaza Starvation

Citigroup Inc. pushed a trading desk head to delete a social-media post that was critical of Israel’s actions in Gaza and drew attention to widespread starvation in the region.

Akshay Singal, the London-based global head of short-term interest rate trading, published the note with photos of malnourished children on Thursday. Before the end of the day, the bank asked for it to be removed and is conducting a review, according to people with knowledge of the matter.
