The Directorate of Israel's football leagues has made an emergency decision to cancel all football matches scheduled for Saturday, February 28.
Details: The reason for this move is the league’s updated guidelines aimed at ensuring the safety of citizens amid escalating tensions in the region. Football authorities emphasized that holding mass events at this moment poses an unjustifiable risk to the lives of fans and participants.
One of the marquee fixtures of the round to be canceled was the high-stakes clash between Maccabi and Hapoel Haifa. Both clubs have already addressed their supporters, confirming that the match has been postponed indefinitely. Fans who had planned to attend the stadium are strongly advised to stay close to protected areas and strictly follow all security instructions.
Reminder: The Qatar Championship has also been canceled due to regional security threats.
