Paul McCartney is set to play a historic gig in Israel 40 years after The Beatles were banned from playing there, sources say.

They were due to play a concert in Israel in 1965, but they were banished after the then-government refused to grant the necessary permits over fears that their music would corrupt their youth.

Israeli officials have revoked the ban earlier this year and Paul is due to perform in front of 250,000 fans in Tel Aviv in September.

A source says, “Paul is desperate to put Israel on the map of places he has performed.”
