French Unions and Pro-Palestinian Groups Disrupt Military Cargo Shipment to Israel

According to the activist groups, the shipment was initially booked on an Air France flight, but their intervention led to the cancellation of the transport. Air France denied carrying the cargo, stating that it does not transport weapons or ammunition on its flights to Israel. Urgence Palestine, however, claims to possess evidence of the original booking, including the flight number and air waybill.

Following the disruption, the French manufacturer Mejano and the logistics company DSV reportedly rebooked the shipment on an El Al cargo flight scheduled for Saturday evening. The unions are calling on French authorities and airport management to halt the transport, declaring that France's obligations do not change with the airline. Israeli security officials are reportedly involved in efforts to resolve the disruption.
