Demonstrators gathered outside a Puma store in Carnaby Street, as Puma continues to sponsor apartheid Israel's Football Association (IFA) which includes teams playing in illegal Israeli settlements built on occupied Palestinian land.

Human Rights Watch has urged both FIFA and the IFA to show settlement based clubs a red card explaining that

'the settlement playing grounds, including one indoor (futsal) hall, are built on land that has been unlawfully taken from Palestinians, mostly by seizing land belonging to Palestinian individuals or Palestinian villages, declaring it state land, and then designating it for exclusive Israeli civilian use.'

and they add that this crime is compounded by the exclusion of Palestinians from such land so they are not able to watch these matches.

"Military law in the West Bank limits entry to settlements to Israeli citizens and residents, holders of Israeli visas, or individuals of Jewish ancestry."
