The Iranian Football Federation called on the International Football Federation (FIFA) to ban Israel and Israeli teams from matches under the auspices of FIFA and its member football associations and federations due to the “inhumane actions of the Zionist regime” in Palestine and the war crimes committed by Israel in the Gaza Strip. The statement was published on website Iranian Football Federation.
The statement says, in particular, that the actions of the Israeli army led to the death of civilians in the enclave, including women and children, as well as football players, football coaches and referees. The Football Federation called on FIFA to take immediate and serious action against “all football-related activities” in Israel.
“The immediate actions of FIFA, football associations and football unions of the organization’s member countries will be a symbol of philanthropy and the implementation of the charter of the global football community in the field of social and human responsibility,” the statement emphasizes.
The war between Israel and Hamas began with the Palestinian movement’s attack on Israeli territory on October 7, 2023. 1.2 thousand Israelis were killed and 5.4 thousand were injured. Israel is conducting a retaliatory military operation in the Gaza Strip, which has killed more than 28 thousand Palestinians and injured more than 67 thousand people. The majority of those killed in the Gaza Strip are women and children.
About the prospects of a truce – in the material “Kommersant” “They are looking for a possible compromise for Israel”.
