Social media giants could face heavy fines if they fail to remove terrorist content within an hour, under new legislation proposed by EU lawmakers.

The European Parliament's Civil Liberties Committee passed the draft law on Monday evening, which is now subject to approval in a vote in the Parliament's full chamber next week. If approved, the legislation will face a final ratification by EU leaders.
