Israel's public broadcaster Kan said it had filed a complaint to the Swiss police, saying a protester made a "throat-slitting gesture" and spat at members of the country's delegation during the Eurovision opening ceremony on Sunday.
The Eurovision Song Contest week kicked off in Basel with a 1.3-kilometre long parade through Switzerland's third-biggest city, with contestants, including Yuval Raphael for Israel, travelling along the route in vintage trams and buses.
