The Irish broadcaster, RTÉ, has said it will not take part in the 2026 Eurovision Song Contest "if the participation of Israel goes ahead".

Axar.az informs, citing BBC, in a statement, RTÉ said that Ireland's participation in the event "would be unconscionable given the ongoing and appalling loss of lives in Gaza".

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

RTÉ will make a final decision once the Eurovision organisers, the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), makes its decision.

Next year's contest will be held in May in Vienna.
