Manelle Inaho, who competed last summer in the Paris Olympics and led France's artistic gymnastics national team, attended a music performance this week by Palestinian-American rapper Saint Levant, known as a staunch anti-Israeli figure.
The event took place in Paris on Wednesday and included prominent elements of Palestinian support. Starting with large PLO flags waved on stage, through the projection of political messages, to Saint Levant's own appearance wearing a shirt with the inscription "With love to Gaza."
Inaho, who starred in French media over the past year as a symbol of a strong and ethnically diverse women's team, documented the event in a series of Instagram stories. In one of them, Saint Levant can be seen waving a Palestinian flag before the audience. Inaho added text in English stating "Thank you so much," alongside a red heart icon and a PLO flag.
Saint Levant currently resides in the US and is considered a prominent figure in the political hip-hop scene. Over the past year, he has repeatedly made headlines following statements against Israel – including a performance in Amsterdam in November 2024, where he praised attackers of Maccabi Tel Aviv fans and said, "I focus only on the Palestinian struggle – this is my identity, this is my mission."
