Beyond the ‘Green Line’: Israeli Settlement Clubs in Occupied Palestine

A new report on illegal Israeli settlement clubs reveals illegal settlement clubs have grown in number, size and stature under FIFA and UEFA’s current leadership. One illegal settlement club has progressed to the Israeli Premier League and has received millions of dollars in funding from the UEFA Foundation and US government. In addition, there are now three in the occupied Golan Heights in Syria. While seemingly investigating them, FIFA has been broadcasting their games on its streaming platform FIFA+. Illegal settlement players and teams are also playing in UEFA competitions.
