Eden Golan is representing Israel in Eurovision 2024 Footage posted to social media by attendees at the Eurovision Song Contest’s Jury Show offer glimpses of a chaotic scene Wednesday night. Videos posted to X depict the crowd booing and chanting ‘Free Palestine’ throughout Eden Golan’s performance for Israel, almost drowning the singer out entirely.

Sorry EBU, you might endorse a genocide, but you can’t censor people’s voices for peace! pic.twitter.com/dEvIjDU3nC— TheBalkanGuy May 8, 2024 Contradictory to this, it’s clearly stated on Eurovision’s website that peaceful protest is allowed.
