Sagiv Jehezkel showed a wristband inscribed at the match, “100 days. October 7.” That was the day Hamas attacked Israel, and the action was timed to coincide with demands for the release of Israeli hostages.
Turkish prosecutors accused the soccer player of “inciting hatred and hostility,” Turkish Justice Minister Yılmaz Tunç said. Jehezkel has been suspended from participating in matches for Turkish club “Antalyaspor”, and the player’s contract is to be terminated.
