The Government is actively seeking ways to allow Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters to attend the upcoming Europa League match against Aston Villa in Birmingham. Officials are working with police and partners to identify what additional resources and support are needed to ensure the safety of all fans. The ban on Maccabi Tel Aviv fans, announced by Birmingham authorities, has faced increasing criticism and calls for reversal. The issue will be discussed by the Safety Advisory Group and West Midlands Police, who are expected to outline their requirements for safely managing the match with both sets of supporters present.
