Armed Israeli police entered a French-owned church compound in Jerusalem, detaining two consulate employees and causing the French foreign minister to cancel his visit. This incident comes amid strained relations between Israel and France following French President Emmanuel Macron's call for an arms embargo on Israel.
The French Foreign Ministry plans to summon the Israeli ambassador in protest. Israeli security forces reportedly intruded on the Church of the Pater Noster's courtyard, leading to the detainment of the French consulate staff despite their diplomatic status. They were released after the French foreign minister intervened.
