Pro-Palestinian activists asked a French court to ban an Israeli real estate fair in Paris that markets properties in West Bank settlements and East Jerusalem, AFP reported on Thursday. The Franco-Palestinian NIDAL association filed an emergency motion against the 9th Icube real estate and investment salon, arguing that the fair violates human rights. The event is scheduled for Sunday at the European Centre for Judaism. The activists say the fair offers incentives to prospective Jewish settlers, following protests in other cities.
