The French authorities have barred eight Israeli companies from participating in the Milipol Paris security and defence exhibition, which is scheduled to be held in the French capital next week.
According to Israel’s Channel 12, the French government informed Tel Aviv of its decision after reviewing the list of Israeli firms registered for the event, though it has not yet revealed the names of the companies affected.
Paris justified its move by saying that allowing those companies to take part “would create a problem” in the current circumstances. It added that other Israeli firms which were also reviewed would still be permitted to attend.
Channel 12 reported that the French authorities expressed concern to their Israeli counterparts about possible protests or disturbances during the exhibition by pro-Palestinian organisations.
France is expected to announce on Wednesday the names of the eight excluded companies, out of a total of 45 Israeli firms that had been listed to participate. It remains unclear whether the ban is linked to the activities of those companies in Gaza or in West Bank settlements.
Milipol Paris, due to take place from 18 to 25 November, is one of the world’s largest exhibitions specialising in homeland security and defence, attracting hundreds of security firms and institutions from around the globe.

Gaza’s Health Ministry on Tuesday reported 6,000 amputations in the enclave since the start of Israel’s two-year war in October 2023, Anadolu agency reported.
A ministry statement said that children account for 25 per cent of the total amputations, and women make up 12.7 per cent.
“The shortage of medical supplies and assistive devices exacerbates the suffering of the wounded and amputees,” it added.
“These figures reflect the profound humanitarian suffering experienced by thousands of the wounded and their families,” the ministry said, calling for urgent rehabilitation and psychological and social support services, especially for children who now face permanent disabilities at an early age.
In attacks in Gaza since October 2023, Israel has killed more than 69,000 people, most of them women and children, injured over 170,600 others, and left about 9,500 missing – many believed to be trapped under destroyed homes or still unaccounted for.
The brutal Israeli war came to a halt under a ceasefire agreement that took effect on 10 October under a 20-point plan by US President Donald Trump.

The Palestinian Resistance Movement, Hamas, has condemned the Israeli Knesset’s (parliament) initial approval of a bill granting the government the power to shut down foreign media outlets without prior judicial review, calling it an effort to conceal Israel’s crimes and suppress press freedom.
In a statement on Tuesday, Izzat al-Rishq, head of Hamas’s media office, said the Knesset’s vote on the bill represents “a direct threat to press freedom and a reinforcement of the policy of silencing dissenting voices.”
He accused Israel of seeking to “prevent the world from learning the truth about the occupation’s crimes and aggression against the Palestinian people,” adding that much of the content deemed harmful to state security “actually exposes crimes of killing, displacement, settlement expansion, Judaisation, and home demolitions.”
According to the Israeli newspaper Haaretz, the proposed measure would make permanent what is informally known as the “Al Jazeera Law”—a temporary provision passed in April 2024 allowing the government to close foreign media organisations operating in Israel for national security reasons. That law required judicial approval and was originally used to suspend the operations of the Qatari network Al Jazeera.
Under the new bill, the prime minister and communications minister could order the closure of foreign outlets without judicial oversight, significantly expanding executive powers over the press.
Al-Rishq urged international governments, human rights groups, and press unions to act “to repeal this legislation,” which he described as evidence of Israel’s “intention to escalate its crimes and hide the truth from the world.”
He also called on international journalists and media organizations to demand access to the occupied Palestinian territories to report “objectively and professionally on the reality of the situation.”

The ceasefire agreements that ended the recent conflicts in Gaza and Lebanon are at risk of collapse, according to a report by the Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth.
The report said it took nearly a year to reach the ceasefire in Lebanon and just over a month in Gaza. Now, both agreements have reached a “critical point” at the same time and could fall apart.
The Gaza ceasefire, which began on 10 October 2025, was part of a plan to resolve major issues following the return of living prisoners. Other contentious matters, including the disarming of Hamas, were scheduled to be addressed later. However, ongoing disputes and the failure to return all deceased prisoners have raised questions about Gaza’s future.
The newspaper added that some senior US officials under President Donald Trump reportedly fear that his peace plan for the region, which is meant to formally end fighting between Israel and Hamas, may fail due to difficulties in implementing key parts.
Under the first stage of the plan, 20 living prisoners were returned. Israel currently controls around 53 per cent of Gaza’s territory, including large agricultural areas, Rafah in the south, and parts of Gaza City. Meanwhile, nearly two million Palestinians have been displaced to camps made up of tents and the ruins of cities that remain under Hamas control.

UNICEF said on Tuesday essential items including syringes to vaccinate children and bottles for baby formula are being denied entry into Gaza by Israel, preventing aid agencies from reaching those in need in the war-devastated territory, Reuters reported.
As UNICEF undertakes a mass children’s vaccination campaign with a fragile ceasefire in place, it said it faces serious challenges getting 1.6 million syringes and solar-powered fridges to store vaccine vials into Gaza. The syringes have awaited customs clearance since August, UNICEF said.
“Both the syringes and the … refrigerators are considered dual-use by Israel and these items we’re finding very hard to get them through clearances and inspections, yet they are urgent,” UNICEF spokesperson Ricardo Pires said.
“Dual-use” refers to items Israel deems to have possible military as well as civilian applications.
COGAT, the arm of the Israeli military that oversees aid flows into Gaza, said that Israel does not prevent the entry of syringes or refrigeration-related equipment. In relation to dual-use items it said that it exercises particular caution to ensure Hamas does not “cynically exploit the aid for its own military buildup.” It said it offers international organizations “alternative solutions” for the entry of the required aid, but did not provide further detail.
Hundreds of trucks carrying food, water, fuel, gas, medicines, medical equipment, tents, and shelter supplies enter the Gaza Strip every day, COGAT said, in close coordination with the UN.
UNICEF launched the first of three rounds of catch-up immunisations on Sunday to reach over 40,000 children under three who missed routine vaccines against polio, measles and pneumonia, following two years of war in Gaza.
On the first day of the campaign, it reached over 2,400 children with multiple vaccines.
“The vaccination campaign has started, but we have two rounds to go, and for that we need more supplies,” Pires said.
UNICEF said more humanitarian aid is getting into Gaza but some critical items continued to be denied entry by Israeli authorities, including 938,000 bottles of ready-to-use infant formula and spare parts for water trucks.
“That’s nearly one million bottles that could be reaching children who have been suffering from different levels of malnutrition,” Pires told a news briefing in Geneva.
The 10 October truce was meant to unleash a massive surge of aid across the enclave, but relief agencies have repeatedly said not enough is getting in to meet the needs of a largely displaced and malnourished population of 2 million.
