Aline Lahoud

Lebanon withdraws from Eurovision

Aline LahoudLebanon has withdrawn from this year's Eurovision Song Contest, after refusing to show the Israeli entry on Lebanese TV channel Tele-liban. The channel told the European Broadcasting Union that Lebanon's legislation made it nearly impossible to broadcast the Israeli performance.

This puts in breach of contest rules, which state all countries taking part must show the entire event. Lebanon was due to take part for the first time in the contest this year. Lebanon would have been represented by singer Aline Lahoud representing it in the semi-final in Kiev on 19 May.
