Eurovision fans stood in solidarity with Ukraine as they performed at the semi-finals tonight.
Hip hop collective Kalush Orchestra are doing the honours of representing their country in this year’s song contest with their song Stefania.
The group, which consists of Oleh Psiuk, multi-instrumentalist Ihor Didenchuk and dancer Vlad Kurochka, received special permission to participate in this year’s song contest amid Russia’s ongoing war in Ukraine.
Members of the rap group were initially fighting on the frontlines before being allowed to leave.
Following a strong opening from Albania’s entry, Kalush hit the stage during the live semi-finals where they roused the audience with their performance of the popular song, which is tipped to send them to grand final and even win.
The trio were dressed in elaborate outfits including two members in long multicoloured fringed ensembles and others in traditional patterns.
