A real estate agent in Vaughan, Ontario, has been suspended for publishing images on social media during the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict. Vadim Vilensky, broker of record and CEO of Realtron Vadim Vilensky Realty, has been suspended. He had made posts on his Facebook, X, and Instagram pages. The photograph was tweeted with the phrase 'Coming Soon' and two laughing emojis among several bombed-out structures in Gaza. Off-market, 130 square miles, oceanfront lot, no utilities, no power, no water were added to the picture. Vilensky was thereafter barred from the real estate industry. The posts were taken down when they became controversial. Accounts on social media platforms have also been removed or deactivated.
