Hawzah News Agency- Fans from Paris St Germain's (PSG) Boulogne Kop unveiled a giant 'Free Palestine' banner before the kickoff of their Champions League game against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday, eight days before France take on Israel in Paris in a Nations League game.

"War on the pitch, but peace in the world," a message underneath said.

During the match, they unrolled another message that read: "Does a child's life in Gaza mean less than another?"

PSG said they had not been aware "of any plans to display such a message".

The banner also featured an image of the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Lebanese flag, as Israel launched fresh strikes on Lebanon, killing at least 40 in the country's east on Wednesday.

Israel's war on Gaza has killed more than 43,000 Palestinians and wounded more than 100,000 since 7 October 2023, according to the Palestinian enclave's health ministry figures.

France take on Israel at the Stade de France next Thursday, with fans allowed in the 80,000-capacity stadium.
