MALMÖ, Sweden — Hundreds of demonstrators waving Palestinian flags are anticipated to flood Sweden’s third largest metropolis on Thursday to protest Israel’s participation within the Eurovision Tune Contest right here this week.
The annual celebration of music and kitsch, watched by greater than 150 million folks, is usually enmeshed in politics. However some observers say that is essentially the most politically charged version of the competition in its 68-year historical past. For weeks, artists and activists have been calling on Eurovision to ban Israel over its struggle in Gaza.
