Their first two victories came back-to-back in the late 1970s thanks to Izhar Cohen and the Alphabeta with the disco-infused number A-Ba-Ni-Bi (1978), and Milk and Honey with their ballad Hallelujah (1979).
Dana International delivered a third win in 1998 with Diva, and made headlines around the world as the Contest’s first openly trans participant and winner.
Finally, Netta won the trophy for Israel on a fourth occasion with her 2018 empowerment anthem TOY.
