France has barred representatives of the Israeli government from taking part in the upcoming international defense exhibition 'Eurosatory' scheduled to be held in Paris this month. The Israeli Ministry of Defense confirmed the decision, which also restricts Israeli arms manufacturers from displaying offensive weapons or military systems. Only air defense-related products will be allowed for exhibition by Israeli companies.

The move follows France’s earlier decision to ban Israel’s far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir from entering the country. That restriction came after a controversial video circulated showing detained flotilla activists bound and seated on the floor while Ben-Gvir appeared to celebrate in front of them.

According to the report, the French administration has been taking a series of strict diplomatic and administrative measures against Israeli officials following the incident.
