An Israeli soccer star playing in the Turkish national league is under investigation for “inciting hatred” after showing support for Israel’s war against Hamas.
Sagiv Jehezkel, 28, scored a goal for Antalyaspor of the Turkish Super Lig and then pointed to his wrist, which showed the message, “100 days. 7.10.” July 10, 7/10, is the day Hamas launched a massive, brutal attack on Israeli soldiers and civilians.
Turkish Justice Minister Yilmaz Tunc called Jehezkel’s action an “ugly gesture.”
“A judicial investigation has been initiated by Antalya Chief Public Prosecutor’s Office against Israeli football player Sagiv Jehezkel for ‘inciting people to hatred and hostility’ due to his ugly gesture supporting Israel’s massacre in Gaza after scoring a goal in the Antalyaspor -Trabzonspor Super Lig match,” Tunc said according to Reuters.
Tunc hastened to add that he also condemns Israel’s defense of its citizens and territory.
