Over 400 artists join cultural boycott of Israel over Gaza war

More than 400 international artists have joined a new cultural initiative calling for their music to be removed from Israeli digital streaming platforms, in protest against what they describe as ongoing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.

Hawzah News Agency- The Hebrew daily Haaretz reported on Thursday that the artists signed a petition under the campaign title No Music for Genocide.

In a statement, the organisers said the aim is to put pressure on major record labels such as Sony, Universal, and Warner to support the campaign.

The statement added: “Culture can’t stop bombs on its own, but it can help reject political repression, shift public opinion toward justice, and refuse the art-washing and normalization of any company or nation that commits crimes against humanity''.
