This is the best summary I could come up with:

French police are guarding the homes of leading MPs as fears grow of antisemitic violence triggered by Israel's war with Hamas.

French President Emmanuel Macron was due to give a TV address on Wednesday in a bid to prevent the war from escalating tensions.

Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin told France Inter radio on Thursday that "more than 100 antisemitic acts" had been recorded since hostilities broke out.

A member of President Emmanuel Macron's Renaissance party, she had parliament lit this week in the colours of the Israeli flag in response to the Hamas attack on Israel and called a minute's silence before an Assembly session on Tuesday.

Ms Braun-Pivet also announced that Maryam Abu Daqqa, a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), would be banned from attending a documentary screening in parliament next month.

Mr Scholz also announced that pro-Palestinian group Samidoun, which was pictured handing out sweets in the Neukölln area of Berlin to celebrate the Hamas attack, would be banned.
