France has closed four major Israeli company stands at the Paris Air show for reportedly displaying offensive weapons, intensifying diplomatic tensions with Israel amid criticism of its actions in Gaza.
The decision, carried out overnight by erecting black walls around the pavilions, was condemned by Israel's defense ministry as “outrageous and unprecedented.”
A source familiar with the matter told Reuters on Monday that the instruction came from French authorities after Israeli firms failed to comply with a direction from a French security agency to remove offensive or kinetic weapons from the stands.

France, a long-time Israreli ally, has gradually hardened its position on the government of Benjammin Netanyahu over its actions in Gaza and military internventions abroad, with President Emmanuel Macron voicing growing criticism over Israel’s military campaign in The Strip. Macron has also called for restraint following recent Israeli strikes on Iran.
Israel accused the French of using political motives to disadvantage Israeli companies competing with France’s own defence industry.
The air show's organiser said in a statement that it was in talks to try to help "the various parties find a favourable outcome to the situation".
