- Yuval Raphael is representing Israel at the Eurovision Song Contest 2025.
- Her participation comes amid a controversial conflict in Gaza that has claimed over 52,800 lives.
- The singer, known for surviving an attack during a festival, will perform her song "New Day Will Rise" on May 17.
- Despite the controversies surrounding Israel's participation, the EBU emphasizes the importance of music as a unifying force and prohibits political statements during the competition.
It was scary at times, even uncomfortable, but it makes me keep reminding myself why I’m here and my agenda, which is spreading as much love as I can and bringing pride to my country.— Yuval Raphael spoke about her experiences and motivations during the Eurovision Song Contest.
