France opens ‘war crime’ probe over Gaza flotilla activists

June 07, 2026

France has opened an investigation into an alleged “war crime” and “torture” over Israel’s treatment of French activists who took part in a Gaza-bound aid flotilla, a prosecutor’s office said June 5.

The probe was opened at the government’s request, the national counterterrorism prosecutor’s office said, after activists accused the Israeli authorities of mistreatment during their detention in May.

Israel detained more than 430 activists from countries around the world after intercepting them in international waters on May 18 as they made the latest in a string of attempts to break the blockade of the Palestinian territory.
