Английская Википедия:Israel in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox song contest country The participation of Israel in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest first began in Amsterdam, Netherlands, at the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2012. The Israel Broadcasting Authority (IBA) a member organisation of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) were responsible for the selection process of their participation in Шаблон:Escyr and Шаблон:Escyr, with the Israeli Public Broadcasting Corporation (IPBC) taking over participation from Шаблон:Escyr. The first representative to participate for the nation was Kids.il with the song "Let the Music Win", which finished in eighth place out of twelve participating entries, achieving a score of 68 points. Israel did not return to the contest in 2013, and also sat out of the 2014 and 2015 contests. However, following their success at the 2015 and 2016 Eurovision Song Contests, the IBA expressed an interest in making a return to competing at Junior Eurovision. Israel returned to the contest in 2016, with their entrant being selected internally. Israel then withdrew from the contest in Шаблон:Escyr, before returning again in Шаблон:Escyr, and withdrawing again in Шаблон:Escyr.
History
On 10 July 2012, the Israeli national broadcaster, Israel Broadcasting Authority (IBA), announced that they would be making their Junior Eurovision debut at the Шаблон:Escyr in Amsterdam, Netherlands on 1 December 2012.[1] IBA internally selected a sextet group consisting of members Adel Korshov, Adi Bity, Adi Mesilati, Daniel Pruzansky, Libi Panker, and Tali Sorokin. The group who were known by their band name Kids.il, performed the song "Let the Music Win",[2] which finished in eighth place achieving a score of sixty-eight points.[3] Israel has previously shown interest to take part in the Шаблон:Escyr and Шаблон:Escyr contests, although no reasons were ever published to detail the change of interest.[4]
On 21 October 2013, IBA announced their withdrawal from the 2013 contest. However, no details were published as to provide reasons for their withdrawal.[5] Israel continue to be absent from the Шаблон:Escyr,[6] and Шаблон:Escyr contests.[7] Following Israel's success at the Шаблон:Escyr and Шаблон:Escyr Eurovision Song Contests, the Israeli broadcaster IBA expressed their interest in a potential return to the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2016.[4] On 28 September 2016, Israel's participation was officially confirmed by the EBU.[8] On 25 July 2018 it was announced that Israel would return in the 2018 contest, following a change in the contest rules to allow more than 18 countries to participate. The country was given special dispensation by the host broadcaster BTRC and the EBU as they had won the adult contest earlier that year.[9]
