[63227] Iranian animation campaign calls for a boycott of the Eurovision contest

Iranian animation campaign against Israel's participation in Eurovision

Against the backdrop of the Eurovision contest events, media outlets in Iran are conducting a public relations campaign calling for a boycott of the international event. According to کانال اخبار سپاه پاسداران, a channel affiliated with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps that holds a distinct anti-Zionist ideological line, a Lego-style animation video was distributed, presenting messages calling for refraining from watching and participating in the contest due to Israel's presence.

The report, which was also published in آخرین خبر, an Iranian media outlet that reports on current news, presents the animation as part of a protest movement against the country's participation in the singing contest. The video serves as a tool for disseminating the official Iranian narrative that seeks to isolate Israel in the international arena through cultural and online campaigns.
