French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot says France has barred far-right Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir from entering French territory.
According to Barrot, the decision follows growing anger over the treatment of Gaza flotilla activists, an issue that has intensified diplomatic tensions surrounding the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
The move marks a significant diplomatic step by France and reflects increasing international scrutiny over Israel’s handling of pro-Palestinian activists and humanitarian efforts linked to Gaza.
Neither the Israeli government nor Itamar Ben-Gvir had immediately issued a public response following the announcement.
