Could Eurovision collapse over Israel's inclusion?
Published 11 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
Israel's involvement in the Eurovision Song Contest has been the subject of protests for years, with calls for a boycott gaining significant momentum since 2023. Activists have called for Israel to be excluded completely, and now, state broadcasters are listening. RTÉ said that if Israel continues to be part of the competition, Ireland will not send an entry in 2026. Other countries are threatening to do the same. Could Eurovision go ahead without them? We're joined by our own Daragh Brophy, News Editor of The Journal, to explain the controversy.
