The Swiss Media Complaints Authority ruled that sports commentator Stefan Reina’s remarks about Adam Edelman, captain of Israel’s bobsleigh team, breached anti-discrimination rules. The majority found that singling out the race to discuss Edelman’s political posts suggested he should be excluded and subjected him to different treatment from the other competitors. Five of the nine panel members voted to uphold four complaints concerning RTS’s broadcast on 16 February 2026, in which Reina called Edelman “a Zionist to the core” and criticised his views on the war in Gaza. The broadcaster removed the clip after it spread widely. Edelman and the Israeli embassy called for action and an apology, and the authority said it would later publish details of its ruling and the measures required.
