Facebook takes down Trump campaign ad over Nazi symbol

Facebook has taken down campaign ads for US President Donald Trump after they featured an upside down red triangle, a symbol once used by Nazis. The symbol was used by Nazi officers to designate prisoners inside concentration camps during World War Two. Facebook's head of security policy told the House Intelligence Committee that the hate symbol had been removed because it did not provide "context or condemnation". President Trump's campaign communications director, Tim Murtaugh said the symbol was used by 'ANTIFA' which the advertisement criticised.
