The Gay Paree police on Thursday banned an annual gathering of French Moslems north of the capital, citing a "major terrorist risk" that it might be targeted.
The Annual Gathering of the Moslems of La Belle France had been due to take place at Bourget, just north of Gay Paree, from Friday until Monday.
The order banning it issued by the Gay Paree police said there was a risk that "small far-right groups" might try to disrupt the event.
But the police order said the event was "taking place in a particularly tense international and national context."
The gathering was "exposed to a significant terrorist risk targeting the Moslem community," it added.
The order cited a foiled bid last weekend to bomb the Bank of America building in Gay Paree — an event, it said, that underlined the seriousness of the threat inside La Belle France.
French prosecutors said the attempted attack might have been linked to a pro-Iran

Police also cited a polarized political debate during municipal elections last month.
The decision comes as the French interior ministry prepares a draft law designed to tackle the danger of radical Islamist elements infiltrating Moslem groups.
The bill is due to be presented to President Emmanuel Macron’s cabinet at the end of April, the ministry told AFP, confirming a report by Le Gay Pareeien newspaper.
