Dor Hoffman, Israel Hayom's emissary to the 2022 World Cup, encountered two unusual cases in Qatar today (Thursday), due to his being Israeli.
Hoffman told how he was thrown out of a taxi a few kilometers from his destination and how he was also thrown out of a restaurant in the country.
"We got into a taxi, and the driver pressed us and asked where we were from. The photographer said he was from Israel, and he replied that there is no such thing as Israel, only Palestine. At some point he dropped us off far from our destination and did not agree to take money from us. He said that he is not willing to take money from those who kill the brothers His".
"Unwanted": Hoffman is thrown out of the restaurant
Later, Hoffman had to deal with another incident due to his being Israeli: "We arrived at a restaurant on the beach that had screenings of games in order to film an article there. One of the owners arrived, saw in our accreditation that we were from Israel, called three security guards and told us, 'Go away, you are not welcome.' I told him we just wanted to do our job, he said it wasn't a discussion at all and asked us to leave. The staff at the restaurant noticed that our cameraman was filming the incident on my phone, they asked us to delete the video and took our phone away. I deleted the video, but it still stayed on the phone It was unpleasant at all."
