Israeli Eurovision Song Contest entrant Eden Golan will perform at the second semi-final tonight as protests take place in Malmö, Sweden.

Israeli Eurovision Song Contest entrant Eden Golan will perform at the second semi-final tonight as protests take place in Malmö, Sweden.

There have been continued demonstrations in Sweden over Israel's participation, and the week of Eurovision has already seen small gatherings in Malmö and at the Eurovision village when Austrian 2014 winner Conchita Wurst was on stage. Organisers of Eurovision, the European Broadcasting Union , hit out in April against the"unacceptable and totally unfair" abuse of competitors amid"the backdrop of a terrible war in the Middle East".

In an Instagram story, Saade said that the material was a"way of showing a part of my origin" and was a gift as a child from his father, who is of Palestinian origin.
