The French army shot down Iranian drones attacking Israel, contributing to a ceasefire in the conflict between the two countries.

French Defense Minister Sébastien Lecornu has announced that the French army has intercepted Iranian drones targeting Israel, using ground-to-air systems and Rafale jets. These actions took place in the context of a conflict that lasted almost two weeks, started by Israel's attacks against Iran. Following the Iranian counteroffensive, which included 400 rockets and 1,000 drones, both sides agreed to a ceasefire and France's intervention was part of international efforts to limit the escalation of the conflict.
