RTé will not participate in the Eurovision Song Contest in 2026 “If Israel’s participation goes ahead,” said Irish television operator.

In a statement, RTé said Ireland’s participation in the event “would be undoubtedly given the current and horrific loss of life in Gaza.”

Ireland won the competition seven times in total, most recently in 1996.

RTé will make a final decision after the European Union for broadcast decides.
