The big moment has arrived: the general rehearsal phase of Eurovision 2023 is over, and now the burden of proof rests on Noa Kirl's shoulders. From now on, there are no more leaks, rumors, camera angles that were published without permission, and it is no longer interesting whether Noa answers political questions or not - what matters is how her three minutes will look and sound on the television screens of some 100 million viewers around the world.
This is expected to happen at 22:45 p.m., with the rise of the Israeli postcard, followed immediately by song number 9: Noa Kirel, Israel, Unicorn - these are the words you should incorporate into your story and posts with a request to all your friends around the world to vote for us.

Kyrell held two very successful rehearsals yesterday, with the general rehearsal taking place in the evening for the first time with a full audience in the hall. The singer received a standing ovation when she asked if Europe would be willing to see her dance.
One source in the delegation said that the impact of the Gaza operation on Noa Kirel and its results at Eurovision depended mainly on headlines around the world. There is, of course, Kirl's own personal element. "If there are missiles on Israel, it will affect Noa, of course, on a human and personal level. In the end, it's a happy competition and we could be in a difficult situation," the source said.
Kirel and the Israeli delegation are constantly joined by three security guards who are monitoring the situation, when last night the delegation heard that a BDS demonstration is planned around the Blue and White delegation - and now there is concern that the demonstration will grow. "If the Palestinians wake up quickly, we may see demonstrations here. We are only on Tuesday and if Noa makes it to the final, all the Palestinians from London can organize and arrive by train if they hear that she is here and that there is an Israeli delegation."
