Although World Cup organisers have said all along the tournament should not involve politics, it seems the 'free Palestine' cause is being embraced by Qataris and people across the Arab world, as well as some visiting football fans. 

Encounters between Arab football fans and Israeli journalists have gone viral on social media – along with other clips of an England supporter shouting 'free Palestine' during TV interviews, including one with an Israeli broadcaster.

Though neither Israel nor Palestine are playing in the tournament, support for Palestine has featured prominently at the Middle East’s first World Cup, as our international correspondent Michael Safi explains.
