The Ifop survey published by Le Figaro daily on Saturday showed that 72% of those sampled feared that France could be targeted for standing by Israel in its fight against Palestinian group Hamas. The same poll found that 37% of French respondents sympathized with Israel in the ongoing war in the Middle East, versus 20% who expressed solidarity with Palestinians and 5% with Hamas. More than eight in 10 people polled said they were concerned that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which has killed more than 1,400 Israeli civilians and over 7,300 Palestinians, could affect France. On October 7, Palestinian group Hamas launched a surprise large-scale rocket attack against Israel from the Gaza Strip and breached the border, killing and abducting people in neighboring Israeli communities. Israel launched retaliatory strikes and ordered a complete blockade of the Gaza Strip, home to more than 2 million people, cutting off supplies of water, food, and fuel. The escalation of the conflict has resulted in the deaths of around 1,400 Israelis and over 7,000 Palestinians.
