Fans of AEK Athens basketball team burned an Israeli flag, launched fireworks and threw rocks at Israeli fans during a game versus the Zionist team of Hapoel Jerusalem.

The Greek supporters also raised Palestine’s flag and a banner hung on the stands with the text “The capital of Palestine is Jerusalem.”

“From the start of the game there was a very hostile atmosphere against the Israelis,” an Israeli fan told Kan. He added there were “many Palestinian and Hezbollah flags and attempts to enter our stand and set the Israeli flag on fire.”

“A quarter of an hour after the game started, they began to throw bricks and rocks at us, and even injured some fans. We were confined to a small area to not get hurt. A quarter of an hour after that, they began to launch fireworks at us and burned the clothes of one of the fans.

“Everyone was waiting for the game to end so they could get home in one piece,” he said.
