ICELAND CONFIRMS PARTICIPATION
RÚV (Ríkisútvarpið) has just confirmed that Iceland will be participating in the 24th edition of North Vision Song Contest regardless of how Hildur places in the 23rd edition.
The HoD, Dýri Brjánsson, ultimately confirmed that the country would be participating in an interview this evening on RÚV, alongside his co-HoD: Although our entry has mixed reviews, it won't stop us from competing in the 24th edition. Since returning last edition, the interest has been as high as it was in the 17th edition - where Iceland also returned after a HoD change. With this, there is no reason to withdraw from the contest. However what has been decided among the team is that we will wait until the semi final results are released to decide which method of selection will be used. We are currently considering all options available, and will work to devise a plan on selecting our representative.
The HoD stated that while Iceland will definitely be participating, the method of selection is still unknown and the team would rather wait until the semi final results are released before taking a decision. There could be another edition of Söngvakeppnin Sjónvarpsins with possibly more entries, a smaller national selection or an internal selection.
In the meantime, we wish the best of luck to Hildur and everyone else competing in the 23rd edition!

Algeria confirms their participation in the upcoming edition.
Despite the predictions not being in our favor concerning the semi-final result, the country will keep participating even if we will have to face the pre-qualification round. This will only have an influence about the method of selection. Stay tuned for more news.

Israel is most likely withdrawing from #24.There's still the chance that the country will take part - with an internal selection this time. The official decision is yet to be made and announced.
