Why countries are boycotting #Eurovision
This year’s contest features 35 competing countries, fewer than usual after Spain, the Netherlands, Ireland, Slovenia, and Iceland announced a boycott.
The countries withdrew over Israel’s participation in the contest, citing ongoing military operations in Gaza, Lebanon, and the wider regional conflict involving Iran. The European Broadcasting Union had previously considered a vote on Israel’s membership, but the planned referendum was later cancelled.
