Protest

The large digital sign about Eurovision outside Malmö Live was vandalized overnight on Monday. Someone or a few have thrown blood-red paint and written pro-Palestinian slogans.

The vandalism was discovered in the morning hours. On the base of the sign, someone has written “Free Gaza” and daubed it with red paint. Even on the digital sign that says “United by music” and “We are one” someone has thrown paint.

The EBU decides the contestants Israel’s participation in Eurovision has provoked strong protests directed both at Malmö municipality and at SVT, despite the fact that it is the EBU – the European Television Union – that decides who gets to compete.

The police have not received any report about the vandalism during the night, but will prepare one themselves in the morning. Source: SVT Nyheter.

I believe that everyone has the right to demonstrate, but I don’t understand that this should be done by vandalism.
