In a conversation between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israel's Eurovision representative Yuval Rapaeli, he told her that she brought much honor and pride to the country. 'After what you went through, being in a shelter and fighting for life, now you represent all our lives. They are in bunkers – these despicable murderers, and we will complete the task,' Netanyahu said during their video call. 'When you stood there with your hands up saying 'Am Israel Chai' (The People of Israel Live) – it simply moved all our hearts.' Rapaeli responded: 'All I wanted was to bring honor to the country, to bring one moment of satisfaction from all this crazy mess.'
