Malaysia has refused to allow the Israeli team who wants to participate in the World Squash Championships from entering the country.
Faraan: Following this, the Israeli squash association called on the World Squash Federation to oblige Malaysia to approve its entry to the country in order to take part in that tournament to be held in about two weeks in Kuala Lumpur, but the request was denied.
The Israeli squash association also threatened to sue the World Squash Federation if the latter does not ensure the Israeli team’s participation in the world championships.
The competition, which begins December 7, was originally set to be held in New Zealand, but was moved to Malaysia as a result of COVID-19 restrictions in New Zealand.
