UEFA Highlights Anti-Violence Message Before Super Cup Clash

Udine, Italy, Aug 14 (AP) — Ahead of the highly anticipated Super Cup clash between Paris Saint-Germain and Tottenham on Wednesday, UEFA made a powerful statement with a banner that read, “Stop Killing Children. Stop Killing Civilians.”

This profound message was prominently displayed in front of both teams just before the kickoff at Stadio Friuli in Udine, Italy. UEFA, European soccer’s governing body, emphasized the importance of their message on X, stating, “The message is loud and clear. A banner. A call.”

The display coincides with UEFA Foundation for Children's recent announcement of a new initiative aimed at aiding children affected by war globally. Collaborating with prominent charities such as Médecins du Monde, Médecins Sans Frontières, and Handicap International, UEFA is committed to “providing vital humanitarian help for the children of Gaza,” as stated in a press release on Tuesday.

UEFA has a history of backing projects that support children impacted by conflict in regions like Afghanistan, Lebanon, Sudan, Syria, Yemen, and Ukraine. (AP)
