On Saturday, a Paris court rejected a request for the French government to temporarily halt arms shipments to Israel.

French media reported that the Administrative Court in Paris announced its decision regarding the joint request submitted by Amnesty International and the French Federation for Human Rights to temporarily stop French arms shipments to Israel.

The court decided to reject the application on the grounds of lack of jurisdiction.

Amnesty International and the French Federation for Human Rights submitted a request to the court at the beginning of this week to stop French arms shipments to Israel until the latter fulfills its international obligations.
