Calls to boycott sports platform DAZN grow over ties to 'Israeli' leadership
A growing online campaign is calling for the boycott of DAZN, a global sports streaming service, over claims of the platform's connections to 'Israeli' political and military figures, as well as its perceived stance on the ongoing war in Gaza. Organizers of the campaign cite several reasons behind their calls, primarily centered around the company's ownership, executive leadership, and public statements by affiliated figures. Ownership and leadership concerns DAZN is owned by Access Industries, founded by British-American businessman Len Blavatnik. Critics point to Blavatnik's past financial support for 'Israeli' Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Likud party. Attention has also been drawn to Access Industries' president Danny Cohen, who has written opinion pieces criticizing media outlets for what he calls anti-'Israel' bias. Cohen previously signed a letter urging the BBC not to air a documentary focusing on Gaza's humanitarian crisis. Military background and political views Shay Segev, DAZN's CEO, is an 'Israeli' national who served in the 'Israeli' military for four years. Campaigners have raised concerns about his background and its potential influence on the platform's neutrality. In addition, DAZN reporter Emily Austin has faced criticism for expressing strong support for the 'Israeli' military and denying the severity of Gaza's humanitarian crisis in public statements.

The teen, who was set to speak about the humanitarian situation in Gaza, expressed willingness to share his experience on behalf of his community. However, the nature of the question raised concern, with observers questioning whether such vetting would be applied to 'Israeli' interviewees amid the ongoing aggression.

Israel issues week-long ban on Grand Mufti of Jerusalem from Al-Aqsa Mosque
Ammon News - Israeli occupation forces have issued an order banning the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem and Palestine, Sheikh Muhammad Hussein, from entering the Al-Aqsa Mosque for one week, with the possibility of extension, following a summons for interrogation earlier today.
