Snipers on roofs and helicopters in the city: Italy is preparing for a football match with Israel

The Italian government has decided to use all precautions before the 2012026 World Cup qualification between Italy and Israel.

About it reports ESPN.

Today, on October 14, the national teams of Italy and Israel will play as part of the group stage of selection of World Cup 2026. Aware of all possible threats, the Italians decided to prepare.

According to the source, snipers were sent to the roof of the hotel where the Israeli national team stopped, while helicopters were patrolled in the city itself.

Despite the breakthrough agreement on the ceasefire, which put the end of the two -year war in the gas, the match was attributed to the highest risk category. A few hours before the start of the match in the city center is planned a Propalisian march, where about 10,000 people are expected to take part. The march will take place far from the Friali stadium, which is located on the outskirts of the city.

Many shops and restaurants have decided not to open this day, but for those who decided to work, strict rules were introduced. In particular, they were obliged to remove any street furniture and other items that can potentially be used as weapons.

The bus with the Israeli team will be accompanied to the stadium with maximum guards, snipers will be on the roof of the arena, and a significant police and military presence will be provided.

It is worth noting that a year ago, Italy also played with Israel in Udine, which was chosen because of relative difficulty to reach this city in the northeast of the country and the ease of isolate the stadium around which the road barriers were installed.

The area was declared “red zone”, and only tickets can pass through high metal barriers. Fans are strongly recommended to arrive in advance due to strict inspections, during which everyone should pass through metal detectors.

Interestingly, 9,000 tickets were sold between Italy and Israel, although the stadium accommodates 25,000 spectators. The start of the match is scheduled for 21:45 Kyiv time.

We will remind that yesterday, October 13, Ukraine beat Azerbaijan (2: 1), so that the wards of Sergiy Rebrov became entrenched in the second place of the standings of group D.
