Disclaimer that this is from an Israeli tabloid but it's quite a new story so hasn't been picked up elsewhere. I thought the other day that some awkward compromise is what the EBU will likely pursue and here we are. I don't think it's good enough to simply perform under a neutral flag, they need to be banned from the competition.

Tell them they can perform under the Palestinian flag 🤣

I mean, at this point I wouldn't even be surprised if they steal the flag after stealing the land and the cuisine.
