Israel's Defense Ministry Protests After Israeli Booths Blocked at Eurosatory Defense Expo
Several smaller Israeli defense companies participating in the Eurosatory International Defense and Security Exhibition in Paris, France, had their booths sealed off with temporary barriers, prompting a strong and public protest from Israel's Ministry of Defense.
According to reports, while larger Israeli exhibitors were permitted to keep their stands open, most chose not to display any weapons systems — a marked departure from the country's typical presence at the event.
