A representative of the Jordan national team informed FIBA that the Jordanian team will not appear tonight for the game against the Israeli basketball team in the Under-19 World Championship. As a result, Israel will be awarded a technical victory of 20:0, giving them their second win in the championship after two rounds. Basketball Association Chairman Amos Frishman stated: "I regret this decision. I hoped that the Jordanians would still come to play to show everyone that things can be different, especially during this time. I believe that sport is a bridge between peoples and cultures, not a political arena. I hope that in the future there will be no doubt about holding such games."
