The French Ministry of the Interior ordered the expulsion of Palestinian activist Myriam Abu Daqqa, who had come to France for a series of conferences, arguing that her presence risked disturbing public order in the context of the October 7 events.
Although the measure was initially suspended by the administrative courts, it was ultimately upheld on an emergency basis by the Conseil d’État.
