Information not to be missed
In the main courtyard of the Invalides, 42 portraits: President Emmanuel Macron pays a national tribute this Wednesday to the French victims of the attack carried out on October 7 by Hamas in Israel, in the very controversial presence of elected officials from the Insubordinate France.
With 42 French or Franco-Israeli people killed, three still missing and presumed hostages, four hostages released and six injured, this is the heaviest death toll on the French side since the Nice attack on July 14, 2016.
In the presence of numerous political figures, the protocol is settled.
The portraits of the victims enter the main courtyard carried by Republican guards.
This is followed by the performance of Maurice Ravel's Kaddish (mourning song) and the speech by the Head of State.
At the end of the ceremony, the president is due to speak with the families, many of whom were transported from Israel by a special flight.
