Isn’t this incredible? @WMPolice said Maccabi Tel Aviv fans must not be allowed to come. Their decision was implemented. So why do they still need more than twice as many police as usual - even though there will be NO away fans? Who is posing the public order risk?
This Thursday will see us mount a large policing operation, as Aston Villa take on Maccabi Tel Aviv at Villa Park. Find out more about our work to keep everyone safe 👉 https://t.co/5UiRo7FGPU

The feitenrelaas from Amsterdam police and council re Ajax v Maccabi Tel Aviv is unambiguous. 62 arrests. 49 Dutch, 10 Israelis. 5 injuries all minor, all Israelis. These are the facts .

I understand why people say “this is was an attack on all faiths”. It’s to show solidarity. But this one wasn’t an attack on all faiths. It was an attack on Jews. And you can show solidarity by simply acknowledging that too.

Greta will be so disappointed when she arrives in Israel tomorrow and finds out she's not getting a sandwich because it's Yom Kippur.

Hamas executed four Palestinians today, including one woman, for allegedly “collaborating” with Israel. They have long used this claim to get away with brutally murdering hundreds of Gazans who dare to defy their reign of terror. Will those claiming to care for Palestinians

Horrific testimony from a Gaza man, Muwafaq Khaled Khader, who was savagely attacked by Hamas: around 25–30 masked, armed Hamas members brutally beat him, breaking his limbs and assaulting him all over his body. They then set his tent on fire, destroying everything he owned.

We warned but no one listened. Today, journalist Omar Abdrabou lies with broken legs—his body shattered by Hamas thugs for daring to speak the truth. This wasn’t an attack. It was a message to every Gazan: silence, or suffer.
Gaza-based journalist Omar Abdradou, known for his outspoken criticism of Hamas, has received a direct threat letter following his recent posts about Yahya and Mohammed Sinwar. This is the price of speaking out under Hamas rule — threats, intimidation, and attempts to silence

One thing is indisputable in this war: Hamas doesn’t care how many Palestinian civilians die, and hasn’t done since Oct7. Their betrayal of their own people is as despicable as their terror attacks on Israelis.
