Complaint filed over 'throat-slitting gesture' at Eurovision protests: Israeli broadcaster
Basel (Switzerland) (AFP)
Israel's public broadcaster Kan said it had filed a complaint to the Swiss police, saying a protester made a "throat-slitting gesture" and spat at members of the country's delegation during the Eurovision opening ceremony on Sunday.
The Eurovision Song Contest week kicked off in Basel with a 1.3-kilometre long parade through Switzerland's third-biggest city, with contestants, including Yuval Raphael for Israel, travelling along the route in vintage trams and buses.
A number of pro-Palestinian demonstrators were among the crowds lining the so-called "turquoise carpet" route, waving placards and Palestinian flags, and using megaphones.
Kan said on its website that it had "filed a complaint this afternoon with Swiss police following an incident in which a young man wearing a keffiyeh and holding a Palestinian flag made a throat-slitting gesture toward Yuval Raphael and members of the Israeli Eurovision delegation"...
