Britain says it is concerned by recent reports that suggest that Israel will move to annex parts of the occupied West Bank, recognised by the international community to be a Palestinian territory.
VANCOUVER: Palestinian football federation President Jibril Rajoub refused to take part in a photo opportunity with Israel soccer official Basim Sheikh Suliman in a tense incident at the end of FIFA’s Congress on Thursday. After both Rajoub and Suliman had addressed delegates, FIFA President Gianni Infantino invited both men to stand alongside him. However Rajoub declined the gesture, refusing repeated attempts by Infantino to encourage him to participate in the moment. At one point Rajoub could be heard to say: “We are suffering.” The Palestinian Football Association recently appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport over FIFA’s refusal to sanction Israel over football clubs based in the West Bank. The PFA maintains that clubs based in West Bank settlements should not be allowed to compete in leagues controlled by Israeli football authorities. In 2024, United Nations experts said at least eight football clubs had been identified as playing in “Israeli colonial settlements” and called on FIFA to “fulfil its responsibility to respect human rights.” Speaking to reporters on Thursday, Rajoub called on FIFA to “apply the statutes with fairness, with logic.” “What’s going on in Palestine is terrible, destroying all the Palestinian sport facilities in Gaza, the killings of hundreds of Palestinian athletes, employees... I think it’s now the time to make justice,” Rajoub said. “The guy who spoke on behalf of Israel, he did not even pay attention to the suffering, to what’s going on. “I refused to shake hands.

BARCELONA: Champions League holders Paris Saint-Germain stunned Barcelona with a 90th-minute Goncalo Ramos winner to claim a 2-1 away victory in the league stage on Wednesday. Ferran Torres sent Hansi Flick’s Barcelona ahead with a cool finish but Senny Mayulu fired a depleted PSG level before half-time. It was an even and thoroughly entertaining bout between two of the competition’s favorites at the Olympic stadium which was eventually settled by Ramos’ late strike, as PSG exploited Barca’s high defensive line. “After scoring the (first) goal we got a confidence boost and in the second half we were better,” Luis Enrique told reporters. “I’m happy... because it’s an important victory and playing against Barcelona is always difficult.” Luis Enrique, who won the treble coaching Barcelona in 2015, was lacking several key players and his team held on at times but eventually got the better of last season’s semifinalists. “If you let in a goal in the last minute and you lose at home, you’re going to be disappointed,” Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong told Movistar. “There’s a long way to go in the Champions League.
