Israel did not win any medals at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milano Cortina. The country’s delegation of nine athletes competed across five sports—bobsleigh, skeleton, alpine skiing, cross-country skiing, and figure skating—but none secured a medal. This marks Israel’s ninth appearance at the Winter Olympics, with its first-ever participation in bobsleigh, led by A.J. Edelman and teammates Menachem Chen, Ward Fawarsy,

Israel’s medal count remains at 0 gold, 0 silver, and 0 bronze.

“Were any Palestine flags 🇵🇸 raised in the crowd?”

Palestine flags were displayed by protesters in Milan and Cortina d’Ampezzo during Olympic events.  Demonstrations took place ahead of the opening ceremony and throughout the Games, with activists waving Palestinian flags, holding banners such as “Free Palestine,” and chanting slogans during protests against Israel’s participation, citing the ongoing conflict in Gaza. 

Photographic evidence from Reuters and other news outlets shows individuals holding Palestinian flags among anti-Olympics and pro-Palestine demonstrators in Milan on February 5 and 7, 2026. Pro-Palestinian groups joined broader anti-Olympics protests, demanding Israel’s exclusion from the Games, drawing comparisons to the restrictions placed on Russian athletes.
