Conflicts disrupt France-Israel football match
The Stade de France was reported to be less than a quarter full due to a boycott by fans amidst the ongoing war in Gaza.

On Thursday, French and Israeli football fans clashed during a Nations League match held at the Stade de France in Paris. Observers noted that French supporters booed the Israeli national anthem, while many chose not to attend the match at all.

In response to recent violent confrontations involving fans of the Israeli club Maccabi Tel Aviv in Amsterdam, French authorities had ramped up security measures earlier this week.

During the game in Paris, as the Israeli national team was introduced, French fans expressed their disapproval by booing and whistling. Shortly thereafter, a fight broke out involving roughly 50 individuals on the north side of the stadium, prompting stewards to intervene and create a safety barrier.

Social media videos appeared to show Israeli supporters chasing a man and attacking him in the stands.
