Pro-Palestinian protesters marched peacefully to Ullevaal Stadion in Oslo ahead of the World Cup qualifying match between Norway and Israel, carrying banners and lighting flares. The demonstration took place amid heightened security, with only a limited number of spectators allowed into the stadium. Recent weeks have seen similar protests and disruptions at sporting events involving Israeli teams across Europe, including in Italy and Spain, as well as restrictions on Israeli athletes in Indonesia. Football authorities and local officials have debated suspending or postponing matches involving Israel due to ongoing tensions related to the conflict in Gaza.
