Her support for the now recognised country aligns with rumours that she has removed her music from the country in “solidarity”.

The move appears to align with the “No Music for Genocide” campaign which many musicians have now aligned with, including, trip-hop group Massive Attack.

The non-profit organisation, whose slogan is “Join The Movement: Reject genocide and remove your music from Israel” provides advice, to artists on how to block digital services for their work in Israel.

Her last post on her preferred social channel, Instagram, was July 11th.
