The Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions activists (BDS) succeeded on Monday in persuading the Catalonian city of Molins de Rei not to host a scheduled women’s waterpolo match between Spain and Israel.
The match was scheduled to take place on Tuesday afternoon as part of a European championship that serves as a preliminary to the world water-polo league tournament.
The president of the Israeli Waterpolo Association, Revital Cohen Gluska said she was informed of the decision on Monday morning.
