It is the latest example of restrictions imposed by the Western governments on musicians over pro-Palestinian stances. Over the past year, a number of artists have been denied entry to various countries or faced cancellations linked to their political views. This is not the first time artists have faced institutional pressure over their pro-Palestine statements. In April, American singer Kehlani had a show at Cornell University cancelled due to her pro-Palestine views. In May, Irish post-punk group Murder Capital was dropped from venues in Germany after displaying a Palestinian flag on stage.
