After the second semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2024, Ukraine has once again dropped out of the top three in bookmaker forecasts. The chances of Jerry Heil and alyona alyona plummeted as soon as the audience heard the live performance of Israel, represented by Eden Golan.

Even though the artist was booed by pro-Palestinian spectators and hundreds of protesters gathered outside the Malmo Arena, Euro fans voted the country to second place. You can follow the current situation on the Eurovision World website.

The day before, Ukraine had taken the third place, displacing Italy and gaining 9% of the chances to win. After the second semi-final, the situation changed again, and by the morning the Ukrainians' rate dropped to 6%.

Currently, the top three are as follows:

Croatia – 40%

Israel – 17%

Switzerland – 13%.

Overnight, Eden Golan moved up seven positions and displaced Nemo from Switzerland, which had held the silver medal in the betting rankings since May 2 and had been the leader in the list for a month before.

Eden Golan, who has Ukrainian roots but has lived in Russia for most of her life and performed in occupied Crimea, sang her entry track "Hurricane". As expected, the contestant was booed by the audience. Rumor has it that these sounds were "muffled" on the air, but videos of viewers are already circulating online, where long-lasting disgruntled shouts and whistles are heard. However, Eden was later rewarded with applause.
