Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Uefa Displays 'Stop Killing Children' Banner Before Super Cup Final
Caption: Uefa Displays 'Stop Killing Children' Banner Before Super Cup Final. UEFA displayed a banner reading "Stop killing children - Stop killing civilians" before the Super Cup final between Tottenham and Paris St-Germain. The banner was shown as players lined up before the match at Stadio Friuli in Udine, Italy, highlighting the ongoing conflict in Gaza. Two refugee children from Gaza, Tala and Mohamed, were involved in the medal ceremony, symbolizing the humanitarian crisis. Tala, a 12-year-old Palestinian girl, and Mohamed, a 9-year-old boy, relocated to Milan for medical treatment, with both children affected by the ongoing conflict. Nine children from various conflict zones, including Afghanistan, Iraq, and Ukraine, took part in the pre-match display to raise awareness. Mohamed Salah criticized UEFA's tribute to Palestinian footballer Suleiman al-Obeid, noting the lack of information about his death during an Israeli attack. UEFA Foundation for Children expanded its humanitarian efforts, partnering with three charities to aid children in Gaza amidst the ongoing crisis. UEFA’s rules prohibit political or ideological messages at matches, and violations can lead to financial penalties or disciplinary actions. The children featured in the ceremony highlighted the devastating impact of the conflict, with Mohamed having lost both parents and sustained severe injuries.
