High Security Measures for France vs. Israel Match Amid Tensions
Ahead of the Ligue des nations match between France and Israel, Paris Police Prefect Laurent Nuñez reassured the public despite the high-risk atmosphere due to ongoing Middle Eastern conflicts. The match at Stade de France will see an unprecedented security presence, with 4,000 police and gendarmes deployed, alongside 1,600 security personnel inside the stadium. This heightened vigilance comes after recent violence against Israeli supporters in Amsterdam and in light of pro-Palestinian protests in France. Nuñez emphasized the need for close attention to ensure safety during the event.
