After the loss to Real Madrid last night, Maccabi Tel Aviv will continue its journey in the double Spanish week of the Euroleague tomorrow (Thursday) when it will be hosted in the 25th round of the factory at Baskonia's Fernando Boasa Arena.
In the midst of the "Iron Swords" war, the Yellows will arrive in Vitoria and receive a particularly warm and hostile welcome from the most anti-Israel crowd in the Euroleague.
Over the past few years, every game of the Yellows in the Basque Country has been accompanied by many Palestinian flags in the stands, heavy security and a hostile attitude, but this time and when the war in Gaza continues in the background, many pro-Palestinian demonstrations are planned in the area that will also spill over into the hall.
In the team's last home game at the beginning of the week against Oberduroy in the Spanish league, the team's fans chanted "Tel Aviv is not in Europe, free Palestine", while before the game activists of an anti-Israel protest movement published a number of protest rules that they ask the team's fans to follow during the game: not to enter the hall until to the fifth minute in protest over the death of over 26,000 Gazans, half of them children.
In addition, the fans are asked to shout "genocide" every time the Maccabi Tel Aviv players have the ball and to wave the flags of Palestine and South Africa throughout the game.
