France changes its Jerusalem embassy address to 'Palestine'

According to the European Union website, the French consulate in Jerusalem, located on Emile Botta Street in the western part of the city, is actually located in "Palestine,"Report informs via Ynet.

Israel believes that France requested this address change on the website following France's recognition of a Palestinian state, and will likely demand the European Union change the address back.

Britain also changed the address of one of its embassies to "Palestine," but only for the one located in East Jerusalem.
