Preparation for the State Cup Final Football Match – Police forces are working to maintain public order,

BREAKING: Published 30 minutes ago

Meanwhile, officers were dispatched near Ein Yael following a report of an isolated incident where a handful of fans resorted to violence by throwing stones and causing damage to a passing bus. Three suspects were detained and arrested for investigation. In addition, during police activity at the stadium gates, an attempt by a fan to smuggle flares into the field was thwarted, and he was also detained. The Israel Police views any manifestation of violence and public disorder at sporting events with extreme severity. We regret that a handful of fans choose to disrupt a festive and shared football celebration with violent and thuggish behavior. The police will show zero tolerance towards lawbreakers and will act decisively to prosecute those involved, in order to maintain public peace and security.
