Israel’s national anthem “Hatikvah” was played for the first time in the United Arab Emirates on Sunday after judoka Sagi Muki defeated Matthias Casse of Belgium in the Judo Grand Competition in Abu Dhabi to win the gold medal. Miri Regev, who was visibly emotional during the ceremony, wrote on her social media, “We made history. The people of Israel live!” #AmYisraelChai
