The Italian Soccer Coaches’ Association is calling for Israel to be suspended from international competition due to the war in Gaza.

Israel is studying Hamas' response to a proposal for a 60-day ceasefire and release of half the hostages still held in Gaza, two Israeli officials said, although one source reiterated that all Israeli captives must be freed for the war to end.

It comes a day after Hamas said it accepted a proposal for a 60-day truce, during which around half of the 50 hostages would be freed.

Israel has hit back at Norway’s pledge to hand over World Cup qualifier profits to Gaza by warning against raising cash for “terrorist organisations”.

Norwegian soccer’s profits from hosting Israel in a men’s 2026 World Cup qualifying game will be donated to humanitarian work in Gaza.

At least 14 terrorists attacked an IDF camp in Gaza’s Khan Younis as Israel approved a plan to conquer Gaza City and called up 60,000 reservists.
