Today, the Ireland women's basketball team broke from the usual pre-match traditions in their EuroBasket qualifying game against Israel. This decision came in response to allegations of anti-Semitism made by Israeli player Dor Saar, who aired these accusations on official Israeli Basketball Association media channels. Basketball Ireland took swift action by filing a report with FIBA Europe, the governing body. In a statement released, Basketball Ireland conveyed that, due to recent inflammatory and entirely inaccurate claims of anti-Semitism made by Israeli players and coaching staff, their team would not be participating in the customary pre-match activities with their upcoming opponents. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dawn News English is your window into the latest news, insight, and features from South Asia and beyond.
