The Israeli government said Thursday that it would ban far-left French leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon from entering the country after the French presidential contender said he would use French vessels to force aid into Gaza if he were elected.
The announcement comes a day after France confirmed it had refused entry to the head of a body representing settlements in the occupied West Bank.
