According to reports, Lebanese fashion brand Elie Saab faced backlash for sharing a photograph of Israeli actress Gal Gadot wearing a dress from its collection.

Reports suggest that the Wonder Woman actress wore a blue sash dress by the designer for the National Board of Review Awards Gala in New York City earlier this week.

Media reports also mention that Elie Saab's Instagram page posted an image of Gadot, with a description of the "flawless" actress in the brand's Ready-to-Wear Spring Summer 2018.

According to reports, since there are tensions between Israel and Lebanon, the post immediately sparked a backlash online before being removed altogether.

It wasn't a surprise when the Lebanese cinemas banned Gadot's superhero film Wonder Woman.

Gadot had served for two years in the Israeli army as a combat trainer, and Lebanon's Ministry of Economy issued the ban just before the film was scheduled to premiere.
