France has decided to prohibit Israeli companies from participating in the upcoming Euronaval trade show, which is set to take place from November 4 to 7.
While Israeli delegations will be allowed to attend, they will not be able to showcase their military equipment at booths, according to a source familiar with the situation who requested anonymity due to the sensitivity of the issue.
This ban is the latest diplomatic clash between French President Emmanuel Macron and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, coinciding with the Israeli genocide in Gaza and brutal aggression on Lebanon.
The decision, made on Tuesday and first reported by The Wall Street Journal, marks the second instance in recent months where Israeli security firms have been excluded from an arms exhibition in France. In June, they were barred from Eurosatory, one of the largest land armament fairs, although a court later overturned that decision, it was too late for the Israeli firms to participate.
