“So proud of our athletes and their remarkable achievements!” the Jewish state’s official X account wrote.

Israel hailed a double gold in international fencing after its women’s team won in Abu Dhabi and its men’s squad captured gold in Switzerland, the Jewish state’s official X account said on Monday.​

The social media post praised the results as a landmark for the national program and an inspiring start to 2026 for the country’s fencers.

"So proud of our athletes and their remarkable achievements!" the post read.

Team Israel also congratulated Noa Szőllős on Monday after she earned Israel’s first-ever World Cup points in alpine skiing, in the slalom in Kranjska Gora, Slovenia, calling it “history made on the slopes” and praising her breakthrough achievement.​

The Jewish state is excelling at fencing, securing an 11th place finish out of 46 in the men’s team épée at last summer's World Championships in Tbilisi, Georgia.

Israel’s under-23 fencing team won the gold medal at the European Fencing Championship in Estonia in April.
