P@lestine has achieved a historic milestone in football, securing a place in the third round of the FIFA World Cup qualifiers for the first time ever. This accomplishment comes after a goalless draw against Lebanon in Doha, placing them second in their group. However, this victory is overshadowed by their ongoing plea for FIFA to take action against Isr@el.
The P@lestinian Football Association (PFA) has called on FIFA to suspend Isr@el from international matches in response to the ongoing conflict. They point to FIFA’s swift suspension of Russia following the invasion of Ukraine as a precedent. However, FIFA has stated that it will seek legal counsel before deciding on this proposal in July.

This historic qualification comes amidst immense hardship for the P@lestinian team. Players have lost loved ones in the war, and some were unable to join matches due to travel restrictions imposed by the blockade on G@za.
