Before Eurovision
Bosnia and Herzegovina had low average score over the previous four years, and so would have to withdraw, however Israel declined to participate, as the contest was held on its Holocaust Remembrance Day, so their place was awarded to Bosnia and Herzegovina, who ultimately competed.
