War between Hamas and Israel: Emmanuel Macron in Israel, a diplomatic challenge – (Franceinfo)
Emmanuel Macron arrived very early in Israel, Tuesday October 24, with one priority: the release of the hostages. Back to this visit.
Upon his arrival Tuesday October 24 in Tel Aviv (Israel). Emmanuel Macron went to the bedside of the victims. The president is in the Holy Land to ensure France’s support for Israel and is working for a ceasefire. But during his interview with the Israeli president, Emmanuel Macron recalled that France’s objective is above all to ensure the return of the hostages. Nine French people are still missing and could be among the 220 people held by Hamas.
Accelerate the delivery of humanitarian aid
Their fate also hangs on the military intervention of the IDF in the Gaza Strip. This is why Emmanuel Macron wants to accelerate the delivery of humanitarian aid, while more than 5,000 Palestinians have been killed in the bombings. Currently, the French president is speaking with the Israeli Prime Minister, before meeting members of his war cabinet. He will then have to go to the West Bank to meet the president of the Palestinian authority, Mahmoud Abbas.
