Model Bella Hadid has responded to controversy after starring in an Adidas campaign which drew criticism for “unintentional” connections to the terrorist attack at the 1972 Munich Olympics.

The 27-year-old said she was “disappointed in the lack of sensitivity that went into this campaign” after it linked to the Games, which saw 11 Israeli athletes and a West German police officer killed in the attack by a Palestinian group called Black September.
