Musicians urge boycott of 2026 Eurovision over Israel's participation.

Over 1,100 musicians and cultural figures, including Brian Eno and Sigur Rós, have signed an open letter urging a boycott of the 2026 Eurovision Song Contest. The group accuses the European Broadcasting Union of hypocrisy for allowing Israel to participate while banning Russia, arguing the event normalizes military actions in Gaza. Several broadcasters, including those in Spain, Ireland, and Iceland, have withdrawn from the competition.
