News of the show's cancellation was revealed on Twitter by the singer's support act Max Jury.

Militants in Israel and Palestine continued violence yesterday (8 August) after a three-day truce. The Israeli military have killed more than 1,900 Palestinians, most of whom were civilians, in response to Hamas aggression over the past month. 67 people have died in Israel.
Del Rey is the latest in a string of artists to pull out of shows in the region, after Cee Lo Green, Megadeth, Neil Young, Backstreet Boys and many more cancelled gigs recently.
The singer is yet to comment on the cancellation.
