PARIS, November 11, 2025 (WAFA) – French authorities have barred eight Israeli companies from taking part in the upcoming security and defense exhibition in Paris next week, according to Israel’s Channel 12.

The report said that the French government informed Tel Aviv of its decision after reviewing the list of Israeli companies slated to participate, without disclosing the names of those affected by the ban.

Paris explained that allowing these companies to participate would pose a problem in light of the current situation, while noting that other Israeli companies reviewed will be permitted to take part.

The decision concerns the Milipol Paris exhibition, scheduled to take place from November 18 to 25, one of the world’s largest trade shows specializing in internal security and defense.
