That FAF used airliners for unannounced interception practice on multiple occasions is a matter of record, ATCwatcher. To the concern of many, including Eurocontrol. Does your legalistic demand for dates imply you dispute this?

It's also worth asking why such a very high number of intercepts are conducted in French airspace compared with adjacent FIR's. Do the worlds airlines somehow become that much more incompetent in France?
