Video of incident during Israel's performance released, where a young man shouted "Freedom for Palestine" then was dragged away by security guard
Yesterday, RTE News reported that an incident occurred during the performance of the Israeli representative in the Eurovision final and now a video has been released showing security pulling away a person who tried to prevent Yuval Raphael's performance.
In an attempt to stop him in place, they held him, pulled him, and even hit him.
A young man named David shouted "Freedom for Palestine" and security even tried to gag him to keep him quiet.
After the Holocaust, people said "never again."
In 2025, 80 years after the Holocaust, Israel finishes in second place #Eurovision while committing the most documented genocide in history.
Solidarity with this young man, David Ty.

David is a 22-year-old young man and a member of the British group Youth Demand. It is an organization of environmental and political activists that, among other things, calls on the British government to ban all trade with Israel.
On the official Youth Demand website, David announced his plan to ban Israel's performance during last night's Eurovision Song Contest.
"After three months of Israeli blockade of Gaza, blocking the arrival of water and food, essential medical aid, in the last 36 hours alone, more than 250 innocent Palestinian civilians have been killed by 'Israeli hands,'" he said, among other things, in the video.
Also, on the website of the Youth Demand movement, they announced that in addition to David, two other female members of the organization, named Meaghan and Dolly, were forcibly taken from the St Jakobshalle arena in Basel.
