A pro-Palestine campaign group in France has filed a legal complaint against FedEx for "complicity in genocide" over its alleged role in the transit of components for Israeli military aircraft operating in Gaza.
The French Jewish Union for Peace (UJFP) on Tuesday accused the French subsidiary of the American carrier of "having facilitated the transport, routing and delivery of essential components for fighter jets from the United States to Israel via France".
They argued the equipment was used to "maintain and repair F-35 fighter jets used by the Israeli Air Force" in "bombing and surveillance missions in Gaza".
The complaint described these as "acts that could be classified as complicity in war crimes, complicity in crimes against humanity and complicity in genocide".
FedEx France denies the allegations set out in the complaint, which was filed with the National Anti-Terrorism Prosecutor's Office (PNAT).
