Palestine’s national football team announced its men’s squad for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers with an emotional video filmed in Gaza.

Palestine will play in the qualifiers against Jordan on March 20th and Iraq on March 25th.

The Palestine Football Association hoped to compete at their home stadium in Al-Ram, a suburb of Jerusalem. However, the Asian Football Confederation has banned official matches from taking place in Palestine. The games will instead be played in Jordan.
