Paris Increases Security for France-Israel Match

In a disturbing incident in Delhi, lawyer Parag Maini crashed his speeding Mercedes into a Kachori shop, injuring six people; he has been arrested and charged with rash driving and causing hurt. Meanwhile, tensions are rising in Paris as thousands protested against a controversial gala hosted by Israel's far-right, which aimed to raise funds for the Israeli military. The protest, organized by pro-Palestinian groups, coincides with a heavily policed soccer match between France and Israel, where only a fraction of the expected fans will attend due to security concerns after recent violence against Israeli supporters in Amsterdam. French authorities have deployed 4,000 police officers for the match, underscoring the heightened security amid fears of antisemitic violence. The protests against the gala were marked by calls for its cancellation, with activists accusing it of inciting racial hatred. The French political climate remains tense, with upcoming demonstrations expected before the football match.
