British comedian and actor John Cleese has cancelled his upcoming performances in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. The Israeli production company behind the shows cited threats from the boycott movement as the reason for the cancellation. In recent days, Cleese has shared several anti-Israel posts on social media, marking a shift from his previously neutral stance. All tickets for Cleese's shows had been sold out, and the performances had already been postponed once due to regional conflict.
