The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) asked Bambie Thug to change the pro-Palestinian markings displayed on their face and legs during their performance at last night's Eurovision semi-final. 

Written in Ogham - an ancient Irish alphabet - the markings on their body translated to “Ceasefire” and “Saoirse Don Phalistin”.
