The manager of a holiday resort in southwestern France was arrested after banning a group of 150 Israeli children aged 8 to 16 from entering the premises - despite them having booked places well in advance. This was reported by the French news agency AFP. The 52-year-old manager, whose name was not published, claimed he refused to let them in due to his "personal principles." He was arrested on charges of "refusing to provide service or conduct business based on religious discrimination." French authorities reported that the Israeli group was transferred to another resort.
