Palestinian activists have rallied in the French capital Paris, calling on FIFA to take measures against soccer clubs based in Israel’s settlements in the occupied West Bank. They demanded that the football’s governing body prevent Israeli clubs from taking part in official tournaments. FIFA will convene later this week over the issue.
