A Eurovision Song Contest crew member has been hit with paint after two pro-Palestinian protesters attempted to disrupt Israeli singer Yuval Raphael’s performance during the competition’s grand final, organisers said.
The incident took place as the October 7 survivor sang her entry New Day Will Rise, which was greeted with cheers and boos, as BBC Eurovision Song Contest commentator Graham Norton said there was a “mixed response” in the arena in Basel, Switzerland.
