NNA - Caretaker Minister of Youth and Sports, George Kallas, said on Twitter: "The very Lebanese, Charbel Abou Daher, withdraws from the World Mixed Martial Arts Championship so as not to face an Israeli player...This hero knows how to raise the name of Lebanon high and win inside and outside the ring...Thank you, Major General Abbas Ibrahim, for speeding-up the issuance of passports to the players."
