Brussels refuses to host Belgium-Israel football match over Gaza offensive

Daily Dawn + Dawn TV Report

Brussels has refused to host a Nations League match between Israel and Belgium on September 6 because it could spark demonstrations, AFP reports.

City authorities said in a statement that holding such a match while the fighting in Gaza was continuing “will undoubtedly provoke large demonstrations and counter-demonstrations, compromising the safety of spectators, players, Brussels residents, and also the police”.
