Israel said it will pull out of the Eurovision Song Contest if organisers try to censor its entry.
It comes after the lyrics to Eden Golan’s October Rain were leaked to the media earlier this week.
According to the Israel Hayom newspaper, the song references the victims of the 7 October Hamas attacks, with lyrics including: "They were all good children, each one of them."
Eurovision organiser The EBU said it was currently assessing the song.
The contest’s rules forbid political messages, in a gesture to neutrality.
