The teams were taking part in the Wheelchair Basketball Nations Cup in Cologne on Aug. 16, and the incident came before the tip-off during the playing of the national anthems. Footage has emerged showing the two teams lined up on either side of the court, and the British basketball players appearing to turn their backs on the Israeli team and flag as the latter’s national anthem was played as part of the pre-match ceremony.
