💨 Abstract

During the Eurovision semi-final, Israeli contestant Yuval Raphael, a survivor of the October 7 Hamas attacks, faced heckling and booing from a segment of the audience. Despite this, she successfully performed her song "New Day Will Rise." Previously, protesters with Palestinian flags attempted to disrupt her dress rehearsal but were promptly removed. Security has been tightened due to ongoing controversies surrounding Israel's participation amidst the Gaza conflict.
