Three French associations filed a legal petition demanding that authorities block an airfreight shipment scheduled to depart Paris bound for Elbit Systems, an Israeli military industries company, Shehab Wire reported.
The groups moved to court to prevent the consignment from leaving the French capital, though the petition did not specify the cargo's contents or the shipment's intended date of departure.
