RIYADH, Oct 17 (Reuters) - McDonald's (MCD.N) franchises in some Muslim countries disavowed a move by the company's Israeli restaurants to give free meals to the Israeli military, highlighting the polarized regional politics that global corporations navigate during war. McDonald's Israel said on its social media accounts last week that it has given thousands of free meals to Israel Defense Forces personnel. McDonald's Israel is owned by Alonyal Ltd, according to a company statement. We affirm that it was an individual decision on their part," McDonald's franchise in Saudi Arabia said in a statement. "Neither global McDonald's nor us nor any other country had a role or relationship with that decision, neither directly nor indirectly."

Last week, McDonald's Israel began donating meals daily to the Israel Defence Forces. Two days later, McDonald's Oman said it had donated $100,000 to help the people of Gaza. "We stand with Gaza in these difficult times," McDonald's Oman said in a statement posted on X, formerly known as Twitter. Meanwhile, McDonald's Israel said it will continue donating thousands of meals daily to "our forces across the country." As the two McDonald's franchise groups back different sides of the Israel-Hamas war, McDonald's Pakistan weighed in by distancing itself from McDonald's Israel.
