Two French gendarmes detained by Israeli police in Jerusalem
Israeli police detain two French gendarmes at the Eleona, a religious sanctuary owned by France in Jerusalem, which French foreign minister Jean-Noel Barrot was meant to visit. The two were released briefly after. "I will not enter the Eleona Domain today, because Israeli security forces entered with weapons, without prior French authorisation without agreeing to leave today," Barrot said at the scene shortly after meeting Israel's outgoing foreign minister.
