France formally protested to Israel after an Israeli tank fired warning shots near a French diplomat at a crossing point into the Gaza Strip. “This type of act is unacceptable particularly when it applies to officials holding diplomatic passports who have carried out all the formalities demanded by the Israeli army,” the French Foreign Ministry said in a statement sent to formally protest to the Israeli Embassy in Paris last Friday.
