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.
