FROM their verandah underneath a immeasurable petrify wall dividing Israel from a Gaza Strip, a traumatised family tells how a missiles came in swarms.

Showing me a video on her phone, Israeli silent Nava Afenjar, 49, said: “People were screaming. Hundreds of rockets were drifting towards us from Gaza.”

 Mass demonstrations are holding place in Gaza city a week before a Eurovision Song Contest takes place in Tel Aviv

With atmosphere raid sirens groan and thousands regulating for explosve shelters, Nava believes militant organisation Hamas unleashed a barb firestorm given “the universe is examination Israel horde Eurovision.”

Until now a many famous dispute compared with a Eurovision Song Contest was Abba’s classical Waterloo.

As a Afenjar family watched a missiles sleet down on southern Israel a weekend before last, Eurovision contestants — including Icelandic techno punks Hatari — were rehearsing only 42 miles divided in Tel Aviv.

Hatari’s subjugation gear-clad frontman Matthias Haraldsson said: “The approach a dispute is covered, it creates it sound serve divided than it is — yet it’s unequivocally only down a road.”

Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) dismissed 690 rockets during Israel, who responded with airstrikes in Gaza during a two-day conflict.

Four people were killed in Israel and 25 in Gaza. One news opening called it a “Eurovision War”.

University of Vienna historian Dean Vuletic, author of Postwar Europe And The Eurovision Song Contest, says: “Eurovision has never been reason so tighten to a warzone before and been so receptive to attack.”

Israel and Hamas concluded a ceasefire final Monday, yet many are puzzled it will reason for long.

Yet final night Tel Aviv dusted down a sequins and sheer for a glitzy red runner Eurovision curtain-raiser.

A week of semi-finals climaxes on Saturday, with a grand final featuring Madonna behaving for a £765,000 fee.

‘EVERYTHING ISLAMISTS LOATHE’

Israel wants to communicate an picture of Tel Aviv as a sun-kissed, easy-going Mediterranean traveller spot.

But Hamas militants — once described by Labour Party personality ­Jeremy Corbyn as “friends” — are melancholy to hurt a party.

Eurovision is all Islamists loathe. Raunchy cocktail music, hardly clad cavorting masculine and womanlike stars and plainly out and unapproachable LGBT performers and fans.

A Hamas source told Israeli paper Haaretz after a new rocket barrage: “Eurovision can’t occur in Tel Aviv when no service is felt in Gaza. It can’t be that they will sing and humour while we suffer.”

The source combined that Israel “can’t ask for still before and during a Eurovision while we’re in a same state.”

Fellow Gaza apprehension outfit a PIJ recently vowed to “prevent a rivalry from succeeding” — a anxiety to what it believes is Israel regulating Eurovision to foster a picture on a universe stage.

For a 840 Israeli villagers of Netiv HaAsara, tighten to a Gaza limit wall, Eurovision comes as light relief.

Three residents have been killed in a encampment given it was founded in 1982. During a latest attack, that targeted circuitously Israeli cities including Ashkelon and Ashdod, a rocket crushed into a residence withdrawal a top level charred.

Every home has a bomb-proof stable room and families have only 5 seconds to lurch to reserve when barb dispute sirens sound.

The Afenjars’ bungalow is one of those closest to a limit — where dual hulk walls apart them from a Palestinian city of Beit Lahia.

Conditions in Gaza’s narrow, sandy frame of 1.8million adults — underneath besiege given Hamas were inaugurated to energy in 2007 — are dire.

Described as an “open-air prison” where it is most unfit to enter or leave, Gaza has 50 per cent stagnation with shortages of ­electricity, food and medical supplies.

Israeli mum-of-three Nava, who performs X-rays during a internal clinic, added: “The Palestinians are good people yet Hamas has messed ­everything up. I’ve a crony in Gaza who says life is bad there.

The leaders have large houses yet a people are left scavenging in a garbage.”

She tells how a Hamas dispute hovel was detected after being dug underneath a wall only 800 metres from their home in 2014.

Mum-of-four Tsameret Zamir, who runs a visitors’ centre in Netiv ­HaAsara, is propelling people to hang a tile job for assent on a wall that is emblazoned with a hulk dove.

She wept while describing a new bombardment, saying: “It was awful — a children were terrified. My grandparents were forced to rush Poland given of a Holocaust. we won’t run divided from here.”

Tsameret, 53, believes Hamas will stop brief of disrupting Eurovision, saying: “They consider really delicately about their strategy.”

Targeting Madonna and cheesy cocktail acts from opposite Europe would unleash an general backlash.

Israel is reportedly easing restrictions on some imports and permitting millions of dollars in money from Qatar into Gaza in a wish of interlude a resumption of a Eurovision War.

The Palestinians are good people yet Hamas has messed ­everything up

Hamas positively has an arsenal able of reaching Tel Aviv, including rockets such as Iranian M-75 with a 10kg warhead.

PIJ personality Ziad Nakhala pronounced his fanatics were “about to launch rockets during Tel Aviv when a ceasefire stopped it from happening”.

Yet, Israel’s cities are stable by a Iron Dome counterclaim system, that launches rockets to prevent Palestinian missiles. It has been a game- changer in a conflict, intercepting 85 per cent of projectiles dismissed during Israeli cities given 2011.

Despite a new bloodshed, UK Eurovision competitor Michael Rice was remarkably ease when we met him during his Tel Aviv hotel this weekend.

The former McDonald’s worker, 21, from Hartlepool admits he doesn’t know most about general politics. Michael said: “I’m not disturbed during all about security.

I don’t know most about politics, we don’t consider anyone my age and from where we come from knows most about what’s going on.”

Michael, who will sing Bigger Than Us, is also unruffled by calls by activists for performers to protest Israel’s Eurovision show.

The Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) transformation has claimed Israel is “shamelessly regulating Eurovision as partial of a strategy, that presents ‘Israel’s prettier face’ to varnish and confuse courtesy from a fight crimes opposite Palestinians”.

Posing on a beach with a Union Flag, Michael told The Sun: “Politics shouldn’t be brought into it. I’m only here for a music.”

Tel Aviv doesn’t feel like a city in a cross-hairs of militant barb batteries. A bar owners personification 1950s stone ’n’ hurl nearby a beach tells me: “Foreigners consider it’ll be like Vietnam yet we don’t even see many military in a street.”

As temperatures strike 28C yesterday many locals loose on a beach.

Sunbathing army aptness instructors Dana Neeman and Noy Pinto, both 19, are looking brazen to Eurovision.

Dana says: “People shouldn’t be fearful — if they glow missiles they won’t strech Tel Aviv.”

At a limit Nava says: “Hamas are regulating Eurovision as a negotiate chip for money so we don’t consider we’ll see some-more rockets this week.

“We only wish peace, and wish Eurovision can move that.”
