Pro-Palestinian activists disrupted the concert of the Israel Orchestra at the Paris Philharmonic

A concert by the Israeli Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by conductor Lahav Shani at the Paris Philharmonic was disrupted after pro-Palestinian activists entered and set off smoke bombs. This was reported on November 7 by Le Figaro with reference to the Paris prosecutor's office.

The police detained four people after the incident. French Interior Minister Laurent Nunez pointed out that law enforcement officers promptly neutralized several persons "responsible for serious riots" inside the Philharmonic building. They also restrained the demonstrators outside.

"Nothing can justify them," Nunes wrote on his page on the social network X (ex. Twitter).

The Philharmonic strongly condemned the serious incidents that occurred at the Pierre Boulez Grand Concert Hall and announced the filing of a complaint. Videos depicting the chaos in the Pierre Boulez auditorium are also being distributed online. The footage shows a man waving a smoke bomb from the podium. Other people try to interfere, which leads to a scuffle.
