Eurovision Crisis: Four Countries Boycott Over Israel Controversy

The Eurovision Song Contest faces its most significant crisis, with four countries, including Ireland and the Netherlands, boycotting due to tensions over Israels participation amidst the Gaza conflict. The European Broadcasting Union voted to keep Israel in, leading to the boycotts. Spain, a major financial supporter, has also withdrawn, expressing frustration over the handling of the situation. More countries may join the boycott, potentially reducing the number of participants to 35. Despite efforts to balance the loss, the controversy casts a long shadow over the contest.
