Three Former Israeli Women's Soccer Players Arrested in Match-Fixing Probe
Three former Israeli women's soccer players, two men and one woman, were arrested and detained for questioning on Thursday in connection with an alleged match-fixing scheme in the top women's league. The investigation is being conducted by the National Unit for Serious and International Crimes Investigations (YAHBAL) within the Lahav 433 fraud squad, in cooperation with the Israel Football Association.
Authorities suspect the individuals operated a betting mechanism aimed at influencing the outcomes of women's league soccer matches. The alleged motive for their involvement was financial gain, with attempts made to alter game results in exchange for monetary payments.
Details regarding the identities of the former players, the specific matches under scrutiny, or the total amount of money allegedly involved have not yet been released. The investigation is ongoing.
