Israeli authorities, including the police, the Football Association, and the League Management, are launching a pilot program to allow fans to bring water into stadium stands. The initiative aims to improve the fan experience by permitting the regulated and safe entry of water containers. Under the pilot, fans will be allowed to bring one flexible, transparent plastic container of up to 500ml, similar to juice pouches, filled only with non-frozen water. This program will initially be implemented at football matches. Following its conclusion, the results will be evaluated to determine its potential expansion to other sporting events. The authorities reserve the right to restrict or prohibit the entry of these containers if they pose a risk to public safety or disrupt order.
