The Jewish organization Israel is Forever is hosting a gala in Paris tonight, featuring Israeli Economy Minister Bezalel Smotrich as a potential guest, which has ignited backlash. French newspaper Le Monde calls for his entry to be banned due to his extreme views on Palestinians. Concurrently, plans for a pro-Palestinian demonstration are underway. The gala aims to financially support the Israeli army, drawing sharp criticism for its intent. Security measures will be heightened as Israeli officials prepare for a football match against France, coinciding with the anniversary of the Bataclan attacks.
