Israel's Participation at Eurovision Semi-final Amid Protests

Israel has made it through to the final of the competition, with singer Eden Golan's performance earning her a spot among the top 10 in Thursday's semi-final. However, not everyone is celebrating Israel's success, with some protesters vowing to boycott the contest due to Israel's treatment of Palestinians.

The Eurovision Song Contest is approaching its semi-final stage, with the second semi-final set to take place in Sweden on Thursday. Israel's participation has been a topic of controversy, with some protesters objecting to their inclusion. This year's edition is being described as one of the most politically charged in the contest's history. The competition will feature 37 nations vying for a spot in the final, with ten acts already having been voted through by viewers. The remaining five countries that performed on Tuesday were eliminated, including Iceland, Azerbaijan, Poland, Moldova, and Australia.
