France opens 'complicity in genocide' probe over blocked Gaza aid
French anti-terror prosecutors have opened a probe into "complicity in genocide" and "incitement to genocide" over French-Israelis suspected of having blocked aid intended for war-torn Gaza, a source close to the case said Friday. The investigation comes after the Jewish French Union for Peace (UFJP) and a French-Palestinian victim filed a legal complaint in November, leveling accusations of "organizing, participating in and calling for the participation in concrete activities to block humanitarian aid" for Gaza, "including physically preventing the passage of trucks at border checkpoints controlled by the Israeli army."

France calls on Israel to allow ‘massive and unhampered' aid to Gaza
French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot on Sunday called on Israel to allow the 'immediate, massive and unhampered' resumption of aid to Gaza after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced he would allow a 'basic amount' in. 'After three months of diplomatic efforts, the Israeli government finally announces the reopening of humanitarian aid to Gaza,' Barrot posted on X. 'It must be immediate, massive and unhampered. 'It must put an end to the catastrophic humanitarian situation and definitively end the famine,' he added. Earlier, Netanyahu announced that on the army's recommendation, 'Israel will authorize the entry of a basic amount of food for the population to ensure that a hunger crisis does not develop in the Gaza Strip', a statement from his office said. Since Israel's aid blockade began on March 2, Gaza's health ministry, UN organizations and some foreign leaders have been warning of the danger of famine in the territory.
