"The world has witnessed a further wave of deadly, abhorrent terror attacks across the globe," Twitter said in a statement. "We strongly condemn these acts and remain committed to eliminating the promotion of violence or terrorism on our platform."

Twitter's latest action brings the total number of accounts that the company has suspended to 360,000 since it began cracking down on terrorism and violent extremism in mid-2015. While Twitter has long championed free speech on the web and said that it was a "global town square," its positioning has drawn bullies, racists and extremist groups to the service to spread their messages. That has drawn criticism from government agencies and the Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, among others.
