During a fundraising event for the Michal Sela Forum, an organization combating violence against women, singer Yuval Dayan abruptly halted her performance at the Tel Aviv Culture Hall. Mid-song, Dayan signaled security to remove a man seated in the front row. Witnesses described the man as tall and wearing a cap. Despite the removal, Dayan appeared visibly distressed and asked the audience to sing with her, indicating the incident significantly impacted her ability to continue.
The event occurred during the melodic part of a song, with security escorting the man out after Dayan pointed him out. Another witness confirmed Dayan's emotional state, noting she struggled to resume singing the lyrics afterward. The exact reason for the ejection and the man's identity were not immediately disclosed.
This incident follows a recent case where Siman Tov Levi, a man in his 50s, was arrested on suspicion of harassing and violating the privacy of a well-known Israeli singer. Levi allegedly repeatedly attended her performances, filmed her without consent, and followed her. After an initial release with restrictive conditions, he allegedly returned to a performance, sat in the front row, and filmed her again, leading to his rearrest. Levi claimed he was a fan who wanted to meet her and misunderstood the restraining order. A Tel Aviv court extended his detention and ordered a psychiatric evaluation.
