Singer eyed as Israel's Eurovision entry dies fighting in Gaza war

An Israeli military reservist has been killed in Gaza just weeks after he successfully auditioned on a TV show that picks the country's submission for the Eurovision Song Contest. Shaul Greenglick, 26, performed on Dec. 3 while on furlough. Dressed in army fatigues, he sang a popular ballad and was green-lit for the next round. Judge Keren Peles told Greenglick on the stage: "I would be happy to see you representing Israel." Peles, writing after Greenglick's death, said he had dropped out of the show because of his duties in the infantry reserves.
