Raphaël Arnault (French pronunciation: [ʁafaɛl aʁno]; born Raphaël Archenault, [aʁʃəno]; 8 January 1995) is a French politician, currently member of the National Assembly for Vaucluse's 1st constituency.

[1] A member of La France Insoumise, he founded the Jeune Garde Antifasciste in 2018, and serves as its spokesperson.

[3] Arnault was born at the Hôpital de la Croix-Rousse in Lyon.

[7] On May 6, 2024, he was summoned by the police without being prosecuted,[8] following a press release dated 7 October 2023, in which he described Hamas as a resistance movement: "Today, the Palestinian resistance has launched an unprecedented offensive on the Israeli colonial state".

The communiqué was withdrawn the same day, according to Raphaël Arnault, "in view of the horrors that were manifested" during the attack.
