Activists set fire to an Israeli flag outside the stadium where the Hapoel Tel Aviv basketball team is set to play Dreamland Gran Canaria tomorrow night.
According to the local Canraia Ahora site, the “Canarias Insumisa collective” says the flag was burned outside the venue in Las Palmas in Spain’s Canary Islands to protest Israel’s actions in Gaza amid the war sparked by the Hamas terror group’s October 7 attack.
The group also asks local fans not to attend the game, and claims the Israeli supporters may try to provoke them.
