Paris: The Paris prosecutor’s office opened a probe following threatening remarks directed at French President Emmanuel Macron by Israeli rabbi David Daniel Cohen in an online video, ‘France’ 24 reported.
The rabbi’s remarks were reportedly motivated by the French government’s decision to recognise a Palestinian state, slated for September. Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau condemned the statements on X, calling them “totally unacceptable remarks” and noting that Cohen “made several abhorrent threats, notably against the president of the Republic,” as per ‘France 24’.
