Pro-Palestinian Protest Disrupts Basketball Match Between Nanterre and Israeli Team

The Champions League game was briefly halted as protesters entered the court, leading to clashes with Israeli fans before police intervention restored order.

The basketball game between Nanterre 92 and Israel's Hapoël Holon was interrupted during the second half by pro-Palestinian demonstrators carrying flags.
Clashes broke out between the protesters and Israeli supporters in the stands, prompting a swift response from police to de-escalate tensions.
Seven individuals were arrested, six for disrupting the event and one for assaulting a police officer, according to authorities.
The game, initially ordered to be played without spectators due to public safety concerns, was opened to fans after a legal challenge overturned the city's decision.
Despite the disruption, the match resumed after a short delay, with Nanterre securing an 87-77 victory.
