National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir was prevented from entering the eastern stands of Teddy Stadium through the players' tunnel before a soccer match on Monday evening. The club, Beitar Jerusalem, objected to Ben-Gvir walking on the grass, leading him to take an alternative route to his seat. The match, between Beitar Jerusalem and Maccabi Tel Aviv, was part of the seventh week of the Premier League and drew approximately 30,000 spectators.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was initially expected to attend the game, and security arrangements were reportedly being considered. However, due to the complexities of securing such an event, his attendance remained uncertain until shortly before kickoff, and he ultimately did not appear. Other dignitaries present included Minister Nir Barkat and Shaul Meridor.
