Last night, Kneecap took to social media to explain that a 'group of Zionists' attempted to interrupted their gig at a festival in Paris.
The trio, who were playing at the Rock en Seine music festival, shared a video of the attempted interruption.
The video shows activists being escorted from the crowd as they blew whistles in an attempt to disrupt the show.
The Belfast and Derry rappers wrote: "A group of Zionists with flags and whistles tried to interrupt the start of our gig in Paris just now.
"We're not like them. We're not like Israel. We're not here to cause fights. It's all love it's all support for Palestine."
In an accompanying video, Moglai Bap can be heard speaking to the crowd, saying: "They want to try and stop us. They didn’t want us to play at the festival. They just want to drown us out with whistles.
"We're not like them. We're not like Israel. We're not here to cause fights. It's all love, it's all support for Palestine."
This news comes after local authorities, French Jewish groups and government officials opposed the Irish-language trio’s concert from going ahead.
