The head of France’s National Assembly has suspended a session of the lower house of parliament after Sebastien Delogu, a deputy of the La France Insoumis (LFI) party, waved a Palestinian flag to draw attention to the Israeli war on Gaza.
“This is not tolerable,” National Assembly President Yael Braun-Pivet said as she suspended the session.
“We will continue to carry the voices of peace everywhere, all the time,” the LFI party later said on X, where it posted the video of the incident.
The flag-waving took place as junior trade minister Franck Riester was answering a question about the war on Gaza.
