In addition, French police launched an investigation into death threats against three Israeli athletes at the Paris Olympic Games on the same day, the Paris prosecutor’s office said.

Officials from the anti-cybercrime agency are also investigating the publication of athletes’ personal data on social networks on Friday and are trying to have that data deleted, prosecutors said.
