Paris police have banned an anti-Israel demonstration scheduled for October 7, the third anniversary of Hamas's attack on southern Israel. The decision was made at the request of the French Interior Minister due to concerns for public order. Prefect of Police of Paris, Patrice Foret, stated that numerous commemorative events for the anniversary of the terrorist attack will take place in France on October 7. He cited a heightened terror threat and historically high levels of antisemitic incidents in the country. "In these conditions, such a demonstration on this day presents a significant risk of public disorder," Foret wrote on social media platform X. He emphasized his duty to ensure the safety of all event participants and city residents, which led to the decision to prohibit the demonstration. The ban follows a series of student protests occurring across France. Police have not announced any further restrictions on other events related to the October 7 anniversary.
