Kneecap to perform at ‘Rock en Seine’ amid tensions over their criticism of Israel

Irish rap group Kneecap, who have sparked controversy in the UK over their vocal support for the Palestinian cause and criticism of Israel’s bloody Gaza campaign, are set to perform at the annual Rock en Seine music festival outside Paris Sunday. Local authorities have withdrawn their subsidies for the festival in protest. France24 welcomes French Music journalist Oliver Cachin to deepen the question.
