The CEO of Basketball Ireland, John Feehan, says that while what's happening in Gaza is 'dreadful' - a boycott of tomorrow's women's EuroBasket qualifier against Israel in Latvia won't have any impact.
Ireland will face a fine of 80 thousand euro if they do not fulfil this week's fixture.
The Israeli team were this week at training pictured with members of the I-D-F carrying machine guns.
