Israeli secret service joins huge Eurovision security op amid ISIS threats & THOUSANDS of protestors descending on Malmo
THE Israeli secret service has flown to Sweden to bolster up a huge Eurovision security operation as packed protests and chilling ISIS threats plague the competition.
Nine people were warned about "disturbing the public order" with one man being arrested for allegedly carrying a knife, say cops. She could be seen wildly celebrating her semi-final victory in lovely pictures with the young star now tipped to potentially win it all this weekend. After finding out she had done enough to qualify for Saturday's final, Eden could be seen screaming and celebrating the win.
Eurovision crowds were less friendly to the Israeli singer during Thursday's song rehearsals as thousands booed and jeered her from the crowd. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praised Eden for her incredible singing at the semi-final despite “contending with an ugly wave of anti-Semitism.”Her original song was titled "October Rain" before producers declared the direct reference to the October 7 massacre caused by Hamas thugs wasn't acceptable.Amongst the anger and threats she has faced online, Eden says she hopes her performance will help to unite people.
