October 17, 2023
McDonald’s franchisees in the Middle East have become entangled in the Israel-Hamas conflict. McDonald’s Israel has pledged to provide free meals to the Israel Defence Forces, while McDonald’s Oman donated $100,000 toward relief efforts for the people of Gaza. This has led to a divide among franchisees, with McDonald’s Pakistan distancing itself from McDonald’s Israel, emphasizing that they are not affiliated with its operations.
