French President Emmanuel Macron said there was “no basis or legitimacy” for Israel’s bombing of the Gaza Strip. He called on Tel Aviv to stop attacks on the enclave.
“In fact, today civilians are being bombed, in fact. These children, these women, these old people are being bombed and killed. Therefore, we call on Israel to stop,” the French leader said in an interview with the BBC. He doesn’t think bombing Gaza is the best way to defend Israel. Macron noted that such actions can only prolong the conflict.
In addition, he condemned the “terrorist actions” of Hamas (In France, the Palestinian movement is recognized as a terrorist organization). According to him, the French “share the pain” of Israel and its desire to get rid of terrorism. At the same time, as Macron emphasized, “it is important in the medium and long term and for the security of Israel to recognize that all lives matter.”
Let us recall that the aggravation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict began on October 7. More than 10.8 thousand Palestinians have already died in the Gaza Strip.
Earlier it was reported that the Saudi Crown Prince for the first time publicly condemned Israel’s actions in the Gaza Strip.
