A free concert by Israeli-French singer Amir, scheduled for Sunday in Marseille, has been canceled due to security concerns. The cancellation follows calls for a boycott from pro-Palestinian activists targeting the artist. This decision comes shortly after a similar boycott of a performance by musical coordinator Barbara Butch in Grenoble. Organizers cited safety reasons for the cancellation, held at a major shopping center in the city. The event faced increasing pressure from groups opposing performances by artists with ties to Israel. This incident highlights growing tensions surrounding cultural events and political activism related to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in France. The cancellation was first reported by Hespress, a Moroccan online newspaper.
