Garnier apologises for Israeli army care packages

The cosmetics company attracted widespread criticism and mockery for its decision to send "care packages" to front-line soldiers in the Israeli army.

Many threatened to boycott the company, which would add another business to the long list included in the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions campaign (BDS) that targets Israeli goods and commerce.

Garnier said in a statement that the company values "peace and harmony."
