MTV has canceled the Europe Music Awards show for 2023, citing the escalating conflict between Israel and Hamas.

FILE - Taika Waititi, left, and Rita Ora host the European MTV Awards 2022 in Dusseldorf, Germany, on Nov. 13, 2022. The network said Thursday in a statement that they canceled the ceremony in Paris out of "an abundance of caution" for employees, crew members and all others directly involved in the show.

As we watch the devastating events in Israel and Gaza continue to unfold, this does not feel like a moment for a global celebration," the network said. "With thousands of lives already lost, it is a moment of mourning." MTV said voting will continue and winning artists will still receive their awards. The next EMAs will be hosted in November 2024.. Israel continues to retaliate against the terrorist attacks with airstrikes and bombs while ordering an evacuation of citizens to the south.

Gaza's Health Ministry said Thursday that 3,785 Palestinians have been killed so far and nearly 12,500 have been wounded.Gaza is still reeling from a deadly explosion at a hospital Tuesday that killed some 500 people and prompted mass protests in Arab nations.
