Multiple arrests were made ahead of a soccer match in the United Kingdom involving Israeli team Maccabi Tel Aviv, as protests erupted near the stadium. Israeli fans were banned from attending due to safety concerns, but both pro-Palestinian and pro-Israel demonstrators gathered outside, leading to a tense atmosphere. Police detained several individuals for offenses including failing to comply with orders, racially aggravated behavior, and breach of the peace. The match was classified as high risk amid rising concerns about antisemitism and calls for sports boycotts related to the conflict in Gaza. The decision to ban visiting fans was widely criticized, and the event follows previous incidents of violence targeting Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters in Europe.
