In Paris, two separate protests against far-right pro-Israeli gala Israel is Forever
While the first march on Wednesday evening brought together the usual supporters of the Palestinian cause, the second brought together left-wing Jewish organizations opposed to the war. Some were demonstrating for the first time since October 7, 2023.

The planned visit of Smotrich, who openly advocates ethnic cleansing and the annexation of the West Bank, was a catalyst to the pro-Palestinian movement in France, but also to the most liberal and peace-loving elements of the Jewish community. Despite the cancellation of the far-right Israeli minister's visit, against whom several organizations and lawyers intended to file a complaint for complicity in torture or genocide, the two demonstrations against the gala organized by Israel is Forever were maintained.
