Bob Vylan has responded to the uproar over its “death to the IDF” comments at the Glastonbury festival with a statement that doubles down on the artist’s pro-Palestinian position, albeit with less inflamed language and more explanatory context than was found in their concert chant.

Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau confirmed the duo's visas have been revoked "in light of their hateful tirade at Glastonbury, including leading the crowd in death chants."

English punk band Bob Vylan defended their onstage comments during Glastonbury, which called for "death to the IDF."
