This link shows all aircraft crashes in France, just pick out these which occurred near to Paris

https://aviation-safety.net/database/dblist.php?Country=F

In 1960, there was a collision between a Stampe and a Caravelle (Air Algerie?) over Paris. The Stampe was lost, but the Caravelle recovered.

In the early 70s a collision occurred over Nantes I think between a Spantax Coronado and an Iberia DC-9. The Coronado recovered into An Air Force base (Cognac?) with a chunk of outer wing missing. The DC-9 alas, was lost.

The latter was I’m pretty sure due to one of the aircraft entering a hold as a result of an ATC strike or go-slow at the time.

Bound to be on the ASN list.
