Last update: 10 hours agoEurovision Fallout: The 2026 final line-up is set after Tuesday’s first semi-final in Vienna, with Israel and Finland among the qualifiers despite boos and “stop the genocide” chants, while San Marino—including guest vocals from Boy George—crashed out. Boycott Politics: The show’s biggest disruption continues: five countries (including Ireland and Spain) boycotted over Israel’s Gaza war, keeping Eurovision’s “United by music” message under pressure. San Marino Business: In a separate win for the microstate, Jet Aviation San Marino added its first ACJ220-100, the first of the type based in the Asia-Pacific region. Health Watch: A cruise ship in Bordeaux says dozens of guests and crew are showing gastrointestinal illness symptoms, with health authorities reviewing records and samples. Culture & Travel: Eurovision’s week also brought a Medieval Congress in the US and a “sailing other people’s boats” travel feature—light relief from the politics.
