Ireland has declared that it will boycott next year's Eurovision Song Contest if Israel is allowed to participate.
According to a statement, Israel's participation would be unreasonable, given the ongoing and horrific loss of life in Gaza.
Ireland's final decision will be made after Eurovision organizers and the European Broadcasting Union speak about their participants.
According to a statement, countries have until mid-December to confirm whether they wish to participate in next year's event in Vienna.
Slovenia has also stated that it will withdraw from the contest if Israel participates.
Spain has also made this decision. This debate comes after a petition signed by over 70 former Eurovision contestants, who this year called for Israel's exclusion from the competition.
