The Basketball EuroLeague match between Maccabi Tel Aviv and Virtus Bologna ended without any violence incident on Friday with the latter emerging winners with 84-77. The game was played under higher security measures after the Israeli authorities called on fans to remain indoors after football hooliganism led to violent clashes within the same Israeli club football team the previous night in Amsterdam.
Security measures for the basketball game had been upped by Bologna’s police chief and a personal security for the Israeli team was arranged. The measures were taken, according to a recommendation by the National Security Council that advised Israelis not to attend the game and not to wave Israeli or Jewish-related symbols due to the possibility of more similar attacks.
Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni condemned the increased anti-Semitic attitudes and spoke about the readiness of the government to protect Jewish people. The proactive approach was useful since no disturbances were reported throughout the game, given the high risk associated with the participation of Israeli sports teams in other countries.
The problems arose from an attack on Thursday after the Europa League match between Ajax and Maccabi Tel Aviv FC in Amsterdam. Dutch authorities said that five people had to be taken to hospital and 62 people were arrested after the football match increasing tensions over Israeli teams participating in European leagues.
The occurrences compelled the Israeli authorities to focus more on social media after more rallying of attacks against Israelis and Jews in sports events. Knowledge enhancement of security measures during the basketball game at Bologna was facilitated by such changes.
