The US rapper posted a series of erratic tweets - one of which appeared to show a symbol of swastika.

Twitter's new boss Elon Musk was asked by one user to "fix Kanye".

West had "violated our rule against incitement to violence", Musk tweeted.

In recent months West has caused controversy with a series of antisemitic and racist remarks.
