Eurovision acts perform as protesters shout at fans coming into arena
The Eurovision Song Contest has kicked off in Malmo, Sweden, as fans were shouted at by pro-Palestinian protesters going into the venue.
The demonstrators, who are calling for a boycott of the competition due to the participation of Israel’s Eden Golan, were on both sides of entrants queuing to go into the Malmo Arena on Saturday.
Several protesters have also been detained and taken away by police.
They called out “free Palestine” and “shame” to those attending as Golan is set to perform alongside the UK’s Olly Alexander, Ireland’s Bambie Thug and entrants
