Punk duo Bob Vylan have been dropped from a line-up of a French music festival, following their controversial appearance at Glastonbury Festival. The group had been due to perform at Kave Fest, which is held in the town of Gisors, north of Paris, on Sunday (6 July).

The United States has revoked visas for members of Britain's Bob Vylan punk-rap duo after they led chants during their set at the Glastonbury music festival in England over the weekend that the State Department and the BBC,

British police are investigating and the band lost its U.S. visas after a member called for “death” to Israel’s army at a festival.

The UK's chief rabbi has strongly criticised "the airing of vile Jew-hate at Glastonbury" after a live broadcast of Bob Vylan's performance at the festival went out on the BBC, during which the band's singer led the crowd in chants of "death, death to the IDF [Israel Defense Forces]".

As U.K. antisemitism hits record highs with 3,528 incidents in 2024, Jews say hate like Bob Vylan’s Glastonbury chant is ignored by leaders who still downplay threats to the community’s safety.

The BBC says it regrets not cutting off the Glastonbury festival live stream of punk-rap duo Bob Vylan's performance, which included an anti-Israel chant.
