France shut down the main Israeli company stands at the Paris Airshow on Monday for refusing to remove attack weapons from display, sparking a furious response from Israel and inflaming tensions between the traditional allies.

French authorities closed a handful of Israeli firms' stalls at the Paris Air Show, citing a decision to ban "offensive weapons" being displayed amid the Gaza war.

Israel's Defense Ministry said it plans to fight back after the French government Monday blocked its weapons system displays at this week's Paris Air Show, after Israel attacked Iran over the weekend.
