The Israeli bobsled team's apartment at the Milan Cortina Winter Games was robbed while the athletes were training, resulting in the loss of passports, equipment, and personal belongings. Team pilot Adam 'AJ' Edelman shared details of the incident, noting that the theft included suitcases, shoes, and other valuables. Despite the setback, the team quickly returned to training, with Edelman praising their resilience and determination. The team is notable for its diverse members, including Edelman, who is believed to be the first Orthodox Jew to compete in the Winter Games, and Ward Fawarseh, thought to be the first Druze Olympian.
