Israel’s Ministry of Defense has condemned the erection of black partition walls around its defense industry pavilions at the Paris Air Show, calling the move “outrageous and unprecedented” and demanding an immediate reversal by French authorities and event organizers.
The walls appeared overnight ahead of the air show’s opening Monday, visually isolating Israeli booths from dozens of other international exhibitors. Israeli officials say the move followed a last-minute demand from organizers to remove offensive weapons systems from display — a request they rejected.
