Zara has issued a statement to customers following a controversial campaign that saw many people boycott the Spanish fashion chain.

Titled ‘The Jacket,’ Zara’s latest atelier campaign stars US model Kristen McMenemy and features imagery that many people claimed resembled some of the images that have come out of the Israel-Gaza war.
