RTE says it would be 'unconscionable' amid Gaza deaths

- BY JONATHAN MCCAMBRIDGE and LAURA HARDING

IRELAND will not take part in the Eurovision Song Contest in 2026 if Israel participates, RTE has announced.

It said a final call would be made when the European Broadcasting Union makes its decision.

But it added that Ireland's participation would be "unconscionable given the ongoing and appalling loss of lives in Gaza.

A spokesperson for Eurovision said it was up to each state to decide if it wanted to take part in the contest.

An RTE statement said that at the General Assembly of the European Broadcasting Union in July, "a number of EBU members raised concerns about the participation of Israel in the Eurovision Song Contest".
