Israel football fans' ‘murderers' banner causes outrage in Poland at Europa Conference game
Israeli football fans sparked outrage in Poland after displaying a banner reading "Murderers since 1939" during a Europa Conference League match against a Polish team on Thursday. The provocative message, prominently unfurled by supporters of Israeli club Maccabi Haifa during their fixture against Rakow Czestochowa in Debrecen, Hungary, drew immediate condemnation from Polish officials. The game was played in Hungary for security reasons. Polish President Karol Nawrocki, a former head of the country's Institute of National Remembrance, took to X to express his dismay. "The scandalous banner displayed by Maccabi Haifa fans insults the memory of Polish citizens - victims of World War Two, including 3 million Jews," he wrote, adding: "Stupidity that no words can justify." Marcin Kierwinski, Poland's Interior Minister, echoed the sentiment, stating: "Anti-Polonism and the scandalous distortion of Polish history by Israeli hooligans demand strong condemnation." The Israeli Embassy in Warsaw also condemned the banner, asserting: "There is no place for such words and actions, from any side, neither at the stadium nor anywhere else. Never! These shameful incidents do not reflect the spirit of the majority of Israeli fans." The year 1939 marks the beginning of the Second World War, during which Poland was occupied by Nazi Germany. The country's 3.2 million Jewish population, the largest in Europe at the war's outset, was almost entirely annihilated, many in Nazi German death camps. A further 3 million non-Jewish Polish citizens also perished during the occupation. Historical disputes surrounding the Second World War and the Holocaust have frequently strained relations between Poland and Israel. While studies have indicated complicity by some Poles in the killing of Jews by Nazi Germany, many Poles vehemently reject such findings, viewing them as an attempt to dishonour a nation that suffered immensely. The banner may have been a response to one displayed by fans of the Polish club during last week's first leg, which read: "Israel is killing and the world is silent," referencing the ongoing conflict in Gaza. That conflict began on 7 October 2023, when Hamas-led militants stormed into southern Israel, killing 1,200 people and taking 251 hostages, according to Israeli figures. Israel's subsequent offensive against Hamas in Gaza has since killed more than 61,000 Palestinians, according to local health officials. Europe's football governing body, UEFA, has initiated disciplinary proceedings against both clubs for "transmitting a message not fit for a sports event." Maccabi Haifa have also been charged with improper conduct. Rakow Czestochowa won the second leg 2-0, securing a 2-1 aggregate victory to qualify for the playoffs later this month.

Ana Ceballos to join the Los Angeles Times as a Washington correspondent
The following announcement is sent on behalf of Washington bureau chief Michael Wilner and assistant managing editor Steve Clow: We are pleased to announce that Ana Ceballos, a prize-winning state government and political reporter for the Miami Herald, is joining the Los Angeles Times as a Washington correspondent. Ceballos will bring over a decade of experience at the forefront of investigative political journalism to The Times' Washington bureau, where she will focus on stories affecting our readers coming out of the Trump administration and the California congressional delegation. Ceballos shared a Polk Award in 2022 for her reporting on Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' program flying migrants across the country, and was part of a Herald team that won the Pulitzer Prize for breaking news that same year for its coverage of a devastating condo collapse in Surfside. Her enterprising work covering Florida politics often drives national headlines. Ceballos' reporting last month on conditions at 'Alligator Alcatraz' broke news that, despite statements to the contrary, the Trump administration held a minor there alongside hundreds of immigrants without criminal records. Her reporting also led to the Herald publishing an exclusive list with the names of hundreds of immigrant detainees at the site, which to date is the only public accounting of who is being held there. Ceballos grew up in Southern California reading The Times and graduated from San Diego State University with a degree in journalism before starting her career covering murder trials, local corruption and wildfires at the Monterey County Weekly. She starts Sept. 2.

Israeli soccer club's ‘murderers' banner described as ‘scandalous' by Polish president
Polish President Karol Nawrocki says a 'scandalous' banner from fans of Israeli soccer club Maccabi Haifa insulted his nation's victims of the Second World War. Maccabi Haifa fans unveiled a banner reading 'Murderers since 1939' in their Conference League match against Polish club Rakow Czestochowa on Thursday. 'The scandalous banner displayed by Maccabi Haifa fans insults the memory of Polish citizens — victims of World War Two, including three million Jews,' Nawrocki, a historian who previously headed the state's Institute of National Remembrance, posted on X. 'Stupidity that no words can justify.' Skandaliczny transparent wywieszony przez kibiców Maccabi Hajfa obraża pamięć o obywatelach polskich-ofiarach II wojny światowej, wśród których było 3 mln Żydów. Głupota, której nie tłumaczą żadne słowa. — Karol Nawrocki (@NawrockiKn) August 14, 2025 Poland was occupied by Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union following an invasion in September 1939. Around six million Poles — roughly a fifth of the nation's pre-war population — died during World War Two, including approximately 3.2 million Polish Jews killed in The Holocaust. The nation's Jewish population was the largest in Europe at the start of the war and almost all were killed during the atrocities, many of them in Nazi death camps. Thursday's match, designated as the 'home' game for Maccabi Haifa, was played in Debrecen, Hungary, for security reasons due to the ongoing Israel-Gaza war. No matches in UEFA competitions can be held in Israel due to the situation. Skandaliczny transparent izraelskich kibiców podczas meczu Maccabi Haifa z Rakowem Częstochowa: — OficjalneZero (@OficjalneZero) August 14, 2025 Poland's interior minister, Marcin Kierwinski, said the 'anti-Polonism' banner was a 'scandalous distortion of Polish history by Israeli hooligans which demands strong condemnation'. Israel's Embassy in Poland said it was 'appalled' by the banner and called on UEFA, European football's governing body, to 'respond appropriately'. The Embassy added: 'We will raise this issue in our discussions with the Israeli Foreign Ministry to prevent such situations from arising again. Polish-Israeli relations cannot and will not be destroyed by extremists.' Rakow Czestochowa won Thursday's game 2-0 to advance to the play-off round of the Conference League league phase, where they will face FC Arda Kardzhali of Bulgaria.
