Ihab Abu Jazar announces Palestine squad for Basra International Championship

Ihab Abu Jazar, the head coach of the Palestine national team, has announced the list of players called up to participate in the Basra International Championship, which the "Fida'i" will compete in as part of their preparations for upcoming challenges, featuring 23 players.

The squad includes Rami Hamadeh, Abdulhadi Yasin, Mahdi Assi, Mus'ab Al-Batat, Khaled Dader, Anas Hamlaoui, Khalid Abu El Haija, Yaser Hamed, Ali Rabaei, Maher Darwish, Ameed Mahajneh, Ameed Sawafta, Abdulhadi Rashid, Agustín Manzur, Badr Mousa, Ahmad Al-Qaq, Zaid Qunbar, Anas Baniouwda, Khaled Al-Nabris, Samer Zbeidi, Asad Hamlaoui, Oday Dabbagh, and Milad Termanini, amid doubts about the readiness of the latter two.

Seven players will miss the national team due to injury, including Emilio Saba, Adam Ahmad, Adam Kaied, Alaa Al-Din Hassan, Hadi Dakour, Wajdi Nabhan, and Oday Kharoub.

The coaching staff attempted to compensate for absences by reaching out to Ahmed Taha, Ayham Shhade, Zakaria Abu Hadba, Anas Zidan, Omar Faraj, and Philip Masri, but the players declined to join for various reasons, including some being tied to their clubs or personal circumstances.

Hamed Hamdan missed joining the national team's camp at the last moment, without providing reasons deemed convincing by the federation.
